BEGINNER sampler blanket knitting pattern

Description

BEGINNER Sampler Blanket Knitting Pattern

My sampler blanket knitting pattern features 12 different stitch designs, all with a skill level of beginner.

PLEASE NOTE that this blanket is the same I shared during my “12 Blocks for Xmas” KAL in 2018. Although this is a revised version, in high quality PDF format and with some extra features, each individual block pattern can be found in my blog.

Language: ENGLISH

All the blocks share the same characteristics:

– have the same number of sts
– have the same number of rows
– they’re knitted with the same needle size
– require a skill level of BEGINNER (only use knits and purls!)

Of course, in addition to using them as blocks for the blanket, they are also great patterns to use as dishcloths / washcloths!

PATTERN DETAILS

The high quality PDF file includes:

– US and Metric needle sizing and dimensions.
– abbreviations
– charted and written row-by-row instructions for each block
– control tables, specially designed for novice knitters. Each table has integrated row-by-row instructions of edge and pattern sts to avoid confusion, and boxes you can check as you finish each row
– notes about joining the blocks

SIZE

Each block is approximately 10” x 10” (25 cm x 25 cm) in size. So, if you only knit 1 of each it will be possible for you to assemble a Stroller / Baby size blanket. And, if you want to produce a larger blanket, you can choose your favorite patterns and knit more than one of them. The pattern includes a table with the sizes of standard blanket to help you plan your blanket.

MATERIALS

You can change the yarn weight and needle size to obtain different sized blocks. Send me a message if you need help.
