#KNITTING PATTERN BA FALLING BLOCKS PATTERN FREE#
Loving the look, thanks so much for this pattern! I am toying with the idea of knitting a back right to the joined squares, picking up stitches along the horizontal side then incorporating a new stitch from the vertical side with a knit two together.These 20 free blanket square knitting patterns were originally published as part of the Charity Cozy Fall MAL I hosted with Noorain from Noor’s Knits as a fun way to make a cozy blanket together and give back to charities at the same time.
I have also been traditional in knitting the center square in red, as in quilting. I am knitting the borders from a red tweedy yarn. I have oriented them clockwise with block #1 having the first strip on the center square on the left. But it is working, and I keep the squares in order with a numbered sticky note pinned to the upper left corner of each square. The four corners are ten ridges around and the rest are either top and bottom or two sides, two are three sides, and three are bottom only.
#KNITTING PATTERN BA FALLING BLOCKS PATTERN FULL#
I decided to use a quilting technique and knitting full borders according to a schematic of the squares I drew. Hi Staci! I have finished all my squares and am knitting the borders. Gauge: 5 stitches per inch in garter stitchįrequently Asked Questions on this pattern can be found here.īe sure to check out my other video tutorials. If you choose to pick a border color as I did (in black), you’ll need an additional 1100 yards of yarn for the size I indicate above.Īdditional Materials: tapestry needle for weaving in ends and seaming, and clippie markers are always helpful You’ll also want to stick with one weight of yarn. Either animal (wool, alpaca, angora, etc.) cellulose (cotton, linen, bamboo, etc.) or acrylic. Yarn: Use up your leftover worsted yarn bits! For best results, stick with one fiber type for the whole blanket. Needles: size 7 US (4.5mm), circulars or straights The video is also at the bottom of this post. This pattern is a FREE RAVELRY DOWNLOAD, and includes links to a six-part video tutorial.
Log Cabin is a traditional quilting technique that has been adapted over the years into both knitting and crochet.
So here we have the Log Cabin Scrap Blanket. I’m able to use up some of these leftovers in the sample bits I knit up for demonstration in the videos, but I love it when I can sink my teeth into a great use of leftover yarns. I have little bits of leftover yarns from decades of projects. That doesn’t mean that I don’t have a “yarn closet” full of yarn. This is true – I never, ever buy yarn unless I plan to cast-on with it right away, knowing exactly what I’m going to make. When I describe myself as a knitter, I always use the word “stashless”.
