I Like Big Hearts -peitto (pyöröneulekone)

I've had my circular knitting machine collecting dust for months, but this pattern finally got me to sit down and actually use it. The heart chart is broken down in a way that makes sense to a total beginner, and I finished a whole blanket in one weekend.

The heart chart is laid out so clearly that I finished my first panel in one sitting, and the finished blanket has that chunky, handmade weight that actually feels like a hug. It’s the first pattern I’ve used where the machine and I weren’t fighting each other.

Finally got my Sentro humming with this pattern, and the heart chart laid out the rows so clearly that I finished a whole blanket in one weekend. The big hearts look way more impressive than the effort they took, which is exactly what I needed as a first-time machine knitter.
