Notes

This pattern was fun (no purling!) but very time consuming. I love how it turned out.

I cast on 275 because I wanted a much larger blanket than the pattern called for. To make a bigger size, each pattern repeat is 16 sts, plus 3. So cast on any multiple of 16 + 3 extra.

The border is 12 sts wide knit on size 8 needles.
