CONSTRUCTION NOTES

  • The blanket is worked flat.
  • The blanket is knit using a technique called mosaic knitting. Mosaic knitting produces a colorwork effect while working with only one color a time and slipping the contrasting color.
  • The bottom and top borders are knit using mosaic knitting.
  • The body is knit using mosaic knitting on the edges and intarsia so the interior is a single color.
