Meet Riley, When life gets busy I keep my knitting simple! Relaxation not frustration is the name of the game with this pattern.

Sometimes when life gets busy the last thing you want to have to worry about when you sit down with you knitting is working out where you left off in the repeat.

My sample blanket was knitted during the height of spring when school, swim training and work were keeping me really busy, and I just didn’t have the energy to knit anything even remotely more complex.

This knitting pattern has a super simple 12 row repeat, giving it a lovely texture without being complicated, so you can relax and enjoy the process without having to worry about counting stitches.

Gauge is not important for this project.
