This throw blanket is sure to add a beautiful touch your home. In this pattern, we use a simple stitch that highlights the varied textures and colors of our handspun yarns. Loosely knit on size 50 needles, your blanket will be a drapey and cozy - think the opposite of stiff and board-like.

We offer 2 versions of this in the pattern you will receive. The first blanket is knit holding 1 strand of our Pixie Dust yarn together with one strand of our Sister yarn. We used contrasting colors to achieve a tonal marled look shown here. In the second version, we use our Sister yarn only and hold 2 strands together.

In both versions, the tassels make the blanket. Do not skip adding these for an extra element of texture and fun!
