Block 12 Blanket MKAL 2022
Hello!
Originally, I had prepared a block that repeated the celtic cables we have already used but I decided to change them for another kind of cable. And I’m glad I did! 😊 First, because I like to share different things with each pattern. And second, because I love how it looks!
This is the last block of this series. But next Friday I’ll be sharing a few edging options to add to your blanket. After all the hard work we put into knitting each square, I believe the finished blanket deserves the extra effort, don’t you?
In the meantime, you can join your blocks with the method of your preference. If you need some guidance, you can check my post on joining blocks (https://ohlalana.com/how-to-assemble-a-blanket-of-knitted-blocks/)
Have a great weekend!

Do you want more squares?
All blocks in my Blanket MKAL 2021 have the same size (stitches and rows) than the one I’ll be sharing this year. So, if you want to make a larger blanket, those squares will be perfect!
