Materials Needed

• Yarn: Worsted weight, 100% merino wool
• Needles: US 8 (5mm) knitting needles
• Gauge: 18 stitches and 24 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cast On: Begin by casting on 160 stitches onto your knitting needle. Make sure your stitches are not too tight, as this will make it difficult to knit the first row.
2. Row 1: Knit all stitches across the row. This establishes the first row of your blanket.
3. Row 2: Begin the textured pattern:
   • *Knit 4 stitches, then purl 4 stitches; repeat from * until you reach the end of the row.
4. Row 3: Knit all stitches across the row again. This will create a smooth surface on the top of your textured pattern.
5. Row 4: Continue the textured pattern:
   • *Purl 4 stitches, then knit 4 stitches; repeat from * until you reach the end of the row.
6. Repeat: Continue repeating Rows 1-4 until your blanket measures 60 inches in length. Make sure to measure your work periodically to ensure you reach the desired length.
7. Bind Off: Once you have reached the desired length, bind off all stitches. To bind off, knit the first two stitches, then use the left needle to lift the first stitch over the second stitch and off the needle. Continue this process until all stitches are bound off.
8. Weave in Ends: Using a yarn needle, weave in any loose ends from your cast-on and bind-off edges. This will give your blanket a neat and polished finish.

Congratulations! You have completed your Rosary Hill Harmony Blanket. Enjoy the warmth and beauty of your handmade creation!
