Summer Blues Blanket
"The Summer Blues Knit Blanket pattern combines simple knit and purls stitches to create a gorgeous chunky texture that is waiting to be brought to life! Designed as a nice classic-looking chunky throw blanket, the Summer Blues Blanket is a beginner blanket knitting pattern available in 12 sizes: baby to king, it works up easily and includes written row-by-row instructions. You can make it whatever you want simply by selecting your choice in color. Use a neutral chunky yarn to ensure it will match any decor without being the center of attention.
