Botanical Garden Blanket KAL

This pattern is available to download from Ravelry.

By: Rosee Woodland

The original pattern release included an earlier draft of the Allotment square which isn’t exactly the same as the square pictured. If you have already knitted this square then we would advise leaving it as is. Should you decide to reknit the square the updated Allotment pattern is now available in the PDF downloads.
The original edging instructions have been updated to clarify that 4 sts should be picked up along each vertical edge. The original pattern erroneously gave 5 sts for every 6 rows over a small section of the edging.

Blocking is essential for this pattern.

If making the blanket for a baby or young child it should be backed with cotton jersey fabric.

26 sts and 26 rows to 10cm measured over stranded colourwork using 4mm needles before blocking
24 sts and 24 rows to 10cm measured over stranded colourwork using 4mm needles after blocking.

85cm wide x 83cm tall after blocking
Each panel measures 20cm wide x 19.5cm tall after blocking
