The Frosted Peaks Chunky Blanket Free Pattern

Wrap yourself in the luxurious warmth of the Frosted Peaks Chunky Blanket, a stunning piece that combines texture and style. This pattern uses oversized yarn and a unique stitch pattern to create a cozy, mountainous texture perfect for any living space.

Materials Needed

• Yarn: Super bulky weight yarn, approximately 800 yards
• Needles: US size 50 (25 mm) circular needles, 36 inches long
• Gauge: 4 stitches and 6 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch
• Tapestry Needle: For weaving in ends

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cast On: Begin by making a slipknot and place it on your needle. Use the long-tail cast-on method to cast on a total of 60 stitches. Ensure your stitches are not too tight, as this will affect the elasticity of your blanket.
2. Row 1: Knit all 60 stitches. This establishes the first row of your blanket.
3. Row 2: Purl all 60 stitches. This creates the second row and adds texture to your blanket.
4. Row 3: Begin the unique stitch pattern:
   • *Knit 1 stitch.
   • Yarn over (wrap the yarn around the needle from back to front).
   • Knit 2 stitches together (this decreases the stitch count by one).
   • Repeat from * to the end of the row.
5. Row 4: Purl all 60 stitches. This will finish the fourth row and set you up to repeat the pattern.
6. Repeat: Continue repeating Rows 1-4 until your blanket measures approximately 60 inches in length or your desired length. Make sure to keep your tension consistent throughout the project to maintain an even texture.
7. Bind Off: Once you reach your desired length, bind off all stitches loosely. This is important to ensure that the edge of your blanket is not too tight.
8. Finishing: Use a tapestry needle to weave in all loose ends. This will give your blanket a clean and polished look.

Your Frosted Peaks Chunky Blanket is now complete! Enjoy the cozy warmth and beautiful texture that this stunning piece brings to your home.
