Checkerboard Knitted Lap Blanket Tutorial
Hi Everyone!
I am so excited and thrilled how this blanket turned out. I’ve only been knitting for less than 2 years and I am still learning, but I absolutely love it! I created this blanket and the pattern is listed below. You can use either straight needles or circular needles.
It’s made in strips and yes, I know how much everyone hates to seam things together, but it’s really not as bad as you would think. The outcome is so beautiful, so it’s worth the patience to make it.
The yarn is Premier Serenity Chunky Yarn and it’s sooooo beautiful and soft! I recently made a few beanies with it and it’s just a dream to knit with.
My original pattern is below:
Size 9 circular needles (link on Amazon a.co/d/c5KgcRh)
Premier Serenity Size 5 Chunky Yarn in the colors Smoke and Cloud Dancer ( 3 skeins of each color)
Make 5 strips each of 2 different colors, alternating colors as in a patchwork quilt
CO 25
Rows 1-6 knit all rows (tail should be on left bottom at end of 6th row
Row 7 and all odd (backside) rows - k3, p19, k3
Row 8 and all even (frontside) rows including row 32, k across to end of row
(end with a front side knit row)
Row 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31 (k3, p 19, k 3)
Row 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32 (k all)
Row 33 knit 6 rows and end on right side
Add white yarn and repeat pattern above, alternating with white and gray yarn.
Bind off on final row after 5 squares long. Weave in your ends.
When you have 5 strips of 5 squares long, sew strips together and weave in the ends.
Happy knitting and if you find any mistakes in the pattern, please let me know. I’m still a beginner and I apologize in advance.
Please let me know if you have any questions. I'm always here to help.
