A beautifully rustic combination of textures embellish this cuddly wrap or blanket in three sizes (wrap/S/M/L blanket) to knit for boat, cabin, or home. Better yet, the ribbed cables and mix of knit/purl textured blocks offer an equally appealing fabric on the wrong side. Worked in one piece, using lofty DK weight yarn on larger needles, this wrap or blanket is light, yet warm and the pattern includes a size for every member of the family. This project is an excellent choice for a newer knitter who is ready to tackle something bigger and experienced knitters will appreciate its engaging, but easily memorized variety. To learn more about the design process of Field and Shore, read the blog
