Cozy Color Block Blanket

Introducing the Cozy Color Block Blanket pattern, an exceptionally easy and enjoyable project that utilizes just knit and slip stitches to craft a beautifully textured rib knit blanket. This pattern is perfect for beginners, as you won't need to make any purl stitches until the very end during the bind off. It’s a fantastic way to learn new techniques while creating a cozy, functional piece for your home!

Finished Dimensions for Lapghan: This delightful lapghan measures approximately 34 inches (86 cm) wide by 60 inches (152 cm) tall. It's designed as a longer, thinner blanket, making it ideal for keeping warm on chilly nights or as a toddler bed blanket. For those seeking to achieve a wider finish, I highly recommend wet blocking your blanket, which can help expand its width.

Finished Dimensions for Small Throw: If you prefer a larger option, the blanket can also be made as a small throw, measuring 50 inches (127 cm) wide by 60 inches (152 cm) tall, without any blocking needed. Should you decide to wet block this version, you can enjoy even more width and a more relaxed fit. Conversely, leaving it unblocked will maintain its original dimensions, perfect for quick comfort.

Whether you're crafting the lapghan or opting for the small throw, this Cozy Color Block Blanket pattern is a wonderful way to dive into knitting and create something beautiful and functional. Start your knitting journey today and wrap yourself in comfort!
