Woodside Blanket Kit
by West Yorkshire Spinners
Get in the spirit! A stunning Christmas blanket or throw, just waiting for you to make it up for your home (or a spectacular gift).
The kit comes complete with the yarn and printed pattern to make the 55" by 56" throw. Fifteen 100g skeins of Croft Aran, a beautiful 100% Shetland Wool that is grown, spun, and dyed in the UK. The colors are classic Christmas green and red, plus natural ecru.
You will need a US 8 circular needle, either 40 or 47 inches, depending on your preference. Gauge on this yarn is 18st per 4 inches, but unless you knit very tightly or very loose you won't need to change needle size.
This blanket is worked in stranded (fair isle) technique with most motifs in 2 colors, and the tree motif stripes in three. This is not a beginner's fair isle project, but should be well within reach if you are an intermediate to advanced intermediate knitter with some fair isle stranded experience.
This project will become an heirloom item in your family, remembered and appreciated for years to come.
FREE shipping on this beautiful kit. The kit ships directly from the importer, so please provide any special shipping instructions in the comments section. It will take about 7-10 days for shipping within the US.
