children's blanket 8 - rock-paper-scissors

A very good-looking and easy to knit blanket worked in a simple checkerboard pattern. The checkerboard pattern stitch does not roll along the edges, making the contrasting color trim optional.

FINISHED SIZE:

25 inches wide x 36 inches long

YARN USED FOR SAMPLE:

Muench Yarns - Bali for Main Color
50% cotton, 50% acrylic
50 grams - 159 yards each ball

7 balls Main Color
1 ball Contrasting Color

For the blanket to be the correct size, it is not the brand of yarn that matters, but the GAUGE that is important.

It is best to refer to the yardage to determine how many skeins or balls to purchase.

NEEDLES:

size 7 knitting needle, or size needles to obtain the correct gauge
size G crochet needle

OTHER NOTIONS:

gauge ruler
tapestry needle

GAUGE:

20 stitches and 30 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch on size 7 needles

You should use the recommended gauge, but it does not have to be as precise as for a sweater. If you are knitting tighter than the recommended gauge, the blanket will be smaller and use less yarn. If you are knitting looser than the recommended gauge, the blanket will be larger and use more yarn. Try different size needles if necessary to obtain the correct gauge.

SKILL LEVEL:

	Projects using basic stitches, repetitive stitch patterns, simple color changes, and simple shaping and finishing.
