Right Angles Throw

 

Intro

I saw a design similar to this on a commercially made woven blanket and loved it. It’s made with 4 Garter Stitch diagonal pieces sewn together or if you’re feeling adventurous…join as you go.

I hope you enjoy!

• Each colored section is 8 rows of garter stitch.
• Garter Stitch – knit all rows.
• Begin Each Row – slip the 1st stitch off the left needle purlwise with yarn in front.
• Cut yarn at each color change – use Stephen West’s weave in technique to hide the ends as you go.
