Light In the Window
Through the Eyes of a Machine Knitter
I LOVE Kits!
Choosing colors is not my strongest suit, letting the designer make the choices for a multi-color blanket is the best solution.This updated blanket is knit in 5 colors. Select a bright or light colorway for one rectangle in the center panel (color E) to symbolize the light in the window, a light that represents care and love.
YES, the inpiration pattern is hand knit in Garter Stitch But there is nothing stopping us from knitting this in stockinette. (Work a little "no curl" magic for the edges).
The Plan:
- Center Panel:
- Cast on and knit in Garter stitch (by hand or hand manipulate) for 1.5 - 2"
- Continue to follow the pattern in plain knitting.
- End the panel with 1.5 - 2" of garter stitch.
- Left and Right Panels:
- Cast on and knit in Garter stitch (by hand or hand manipulate) for 1.5 - 2"
- Follow the pattern in Stockinette, adding Diana's No-Roll Edge
- End the panel with 1.5 - 2" of garter stitch.
- Instead of seaming the panels, consider Sew-As-You-Go , joining the panels as you knit.
