Fuzzy Pattern

Now that Fuzzy is off needles and in the arms of a toddler to be loved, here is the pattern. It hasn't been tested by anyone, so I'm sure there's something that doesn't make sense. I also purled my stitches backwards, which I don't recommend. Gauge really doesn't matter. I knit with needles 4 or 5 sizes larger than the recommended needle size on the yarn. The final blanket was about 2 feet wide and 3 feet long and had 21 repeats of the 6 row pattern.

Cast on 113 stitches.

Knit 20 rows.

Repeat following pattern to desired length.

Rows 1, 2, 5 & 6: K10, [P5, (K1, P1)x6]x2, P25, [(K1, P1)x6, P5]x2, K10
Row 3: K10, [K1(M1, K1)x2 (K1, P1)x6]x2, K1, (M1, K1)x12, [(K1, P1)x6, K1(M1, K1)x2], K10
Row 4: K10, (P5, 12-st LC)x2, P25, (12-st LC, P5)x2, K10

When the blanket is at a length you like, knit 20 more rows and bind off.


Key:

K=Knit
P=Purl
M=Make a stitch by placing a backwards loop on the right needle
12-st LC=Slip first 6 stitches onto cable needle and hold in front, work next 6 stitches in pattern, work 6 stitches from cable needle
