Knitting in Technicolor Pattern is Ready

 Gorgeous in technicolor! First in a series of 4 patterns.

You can easily get up to 4 blankets out of all this yarn. Now THAT'S good use of your money and all this yardage. Inspired by my Technicolor Crocheted Chevron Blanket, here is the first in a series of four knitting patterns.

A two row repeat makes it an easy project. Seventeen colors of worsted weight yarn produces a gorgeous blanket anyone would love. Feel free to use any color combination you like. Make it larger or smaller to fit your needs.
A matching hat in the same color order would be cute! So would a pair of matching booties!

If you are a new knitter and ready to move on from scarves, this pattern is for you! I am always available to help with any questions as you go along.

All the information you need is listed in the pattern. Yarn colors and brand are given to make it just as shown in the photos!

It measures:  36” W x 64” L (92cm x 163cm)

Yarn tip:

To keep track of what row I am on, I make a "chicken scratch" after every  row on a piece of paper.  A chicken scratch looks like this after I have knitted four rows:

Missoni Inspired Chevron Blankets

I love orders I get for baby blankets!  Small, squishy and unique.  This one is for a little girls black stroller.  I adore the pom poms and they really take the blanket from ordinary to something special!

True black and ivory go great together.  It looks like crisp white in the photo, but ivory is a much better contrast.  White yarn would be a bit too harsh, so the ivory softens it up.  

 I used my Pink Champagne Baby Blanlet pattern and substituted the colors with black and ivory.

 I made the poms from with a pom maker from Clover.  Definitely worth the small investment as they come out so perfect.  Ivory poms would have been just as cute.

 This photo is a little like a zebra print, which would also be as cute as can be!  I used machine wash acrylic I Love This Yarn from Hobby Lobby.  Black and a shocking pink would be great for the mom that likes color!

My buttons are custom made from this Etsy shop.   I love them so much!  Made of wood and the name of my Etsy shop is applied with a lazar.  If you don't have an shop, they would be cute with "made for you with love".  They are very affordable and the shop owners are very easy to work with.

 Here is another order, same pattern,  in white and 2 shades of grey.  Poms need to be made...I'm thinking the lightest shade of grey. 

 Did I already say...I love my custom buttons? 

If you look close, you can see the middle of the blanket is solid white for a number of rows.  Not the greatest photos....darn those clouds outside! 

I finished up a Blooming Flower cushion, from Attic24, with some Knit Picks yarn.  As soon as the sun comes out, I can get some photos taken!

Have a great week,

Sheila

Yarn tip:

When seaming something made with bulky or super bulky yarn, use a thinner yarn in the same color to join the pieces together.
