Westport Blanket (Knit)

Westport Blanket (Knit) - Main image
$3.6 $6 In stock

Category: Lionbrand

This chunky blanket is very easy to knit with super bulky #6 weight yarn and US 13 knitting needles. The pattern uses only knit and purl stitches. It's a great project for beginning knitters! The PDF pattern has instructions for six (6) blanket sizes from baby blanket up to XXL afghan. The Westport Blanket is named for the oldest neighborhood in Kansas City, Missouri...my hometown. The blanket design was inspired by the many old brick buildings that line the streets of Westport. Though the design is inspired by very old buildings, the knitting pattern has a simple, modern appearance.

Ella ★★★★★

I've only knitted scarves before, so a whole blanket felt intimidating, but the knit-and-purl-only pattern was genuinely easy to follow. The super bulky #6 yarn on US 13 needles works up so fast that the rows actually fly by.

Julian ★★★★★

Finished this in about two weeks of evening knitting, and the knit-and-purl only pattern meant I never had to look up a stitch. The super bulky yarn on US 13 needles makes the rows fly by, which kept me from losing steam. Already planning a second one for my sister.

Owen ★★★★★

I've been knitting for years and still appreciated how mindless this was with just knits and purls on US 13s. The super bulky yarn made it come together in a weekend, which never happens for me.
