Parallel

Details

This pattern can be made with all sorts of yarn. When you pick a yarn, please consider the goal of the project: a wall hanging made with 100% cotton will start sagging and show big “holes” between the blocks, so that’s not a good idea. The corner to corner designs will also show less clear when you work with hairy or fuzzy yarn.

The example is made with Scheepjes Colour Crafter, which is a gorgeous budget yarn of 100% premium acrylic, with a very soft touch. Colour Crafter is available in 93 beautiful colours. The example blanket is made with 4 balls of white yarn and 4 balls of coloured yarn. I made the blanket in 8 colours: green (1062), light green (1034), mustard yellow (1823), fuchsia(1435), light grey (2019), light blue (1725), white (1001) and black (1002)

You will also need a 4 mm hook, scissors, needle, measuring tape and stitch marker.

If you make the blanket bigger or smaller, you may need more or less than the approximately 800 grams of the example.
