Picture Rock has a garter stitch body surrounded by a stockinette stitch border and then a garter stitch border on the outside. What is different about this pattern is both borders go completely around the blanket, giving it that framed and matted picture look. Even with all that visual loveliness, it is still a quick & easy pattern.
