KNITTING PATTERN -- Dune Blanket - P184
This blanket is a great introduction to Mosaic knitting and simple cables. Pattern comes with full instructions. The blanket pattern is easily adjusted to have a larger amount of Mosaic, or if desired no Mosaic just the simple, yet effective, all over cable pattern. Also works up well in cotton, and could be knitted in any ply, which of course would change the overall dimensions.
Blanket size is very easily adjustable.
