Unleash your inner artist and knit blankets that capture the beauty of your favourite landscapes with this innovative pattern collection.
Anne Le Brocq, a talented designer, presents 50 unique knitting pattern designs, each representing various landscape and weather elements. Whether you're drawn to majestic mountains or the calming coast, you can now craft a landscape blanket that truly reflects your surroundings.
This collection boasts patterns for wet sand, smooth pebbles, tell-tale footprints, gentle rain, fluffy clouds, diverse tree foliage, rugged mountains, rolling sand dunes, and so much more. Each landscape swatch comes with detailed written instructions and easy-to-follow, numbered charts, plus stunning photography that showcases the inspiration behind each design.
These swatches are ideal for crafting "on-the-go" – simply knit one square at a time. Later, you can join them together to form a complete blanket, perfect for popping in your project bag and taking on your travels. But, if you prefer knitting a whole blanket in one go, we've got you covered! The collection also features instructions on how to adapt the swatch patterns for horizontal and vertical repeats.
Alongside the comprehensive pattern swatch library, you'll find seven finished blanket designs, demonstrating the endless possibilities of these patterns. Each blanket has instructions for both the swatch-based method and the single-piece construction, so you can choose the approach that suits you best.
Anne expertly uses a variety of yarns, including gorgeous gradient options, to illustrate how colour and fibre choices can dramatically affect the finished blanket. Solid colour changes highlight the distinct landscape features, while gradient yarns create a more subtle and blended effect.
