Materials Needed

• Yarn: Super bulky weight yarn
• Needles: US 15 (10 mm) knitting needles
• Gauge: 8 stitches and 12 rows = 4 inches in pattern stitch

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cast On: Begin by casting on 80 stitches onto your US 15 (10 mm) knitting needles. Ensure that your stitches are not too tight to allow for easy movement while knitting.
2. Row 1: *Knit 4, purl 4; repeat from * to end of row. This creates the first wave pattern. Make sure to count your stitches to maintain the correct number.
3. Row 2: *Purl 4, knit 4; repeat from * to end of row. This will create the contrasting wave effect. Again, keep track of your stitches.
4. Repeat Rows 1 and 2: Continue repeating Rows 1 and 2 until your work measures approximately 10 inches from the cast-on edge. This will form the first section of your blanket.
5. Row 21: After reaching 10 inches, switch to Row 21: *Purl 4, knit 4; repeat from * to end of row. This marks the beginning of the next wave section.
6. Row 22: Now, knit Row 22: *Knit 4, purl 4; repeat from * to end of row. This will create the next contrasting wave.
7. Repeat Rows 21 and 22: Continue alternating between Rows 21 and 22 until your blanket measures approximately 60 inches in length. This will give your blanket its desired size and texture.
8. Bind Off: Once you reach the desired length, bind off all stitches loosely. This is important to ensure that the edge of your blanket remains flexible and does not pull tight.
9. Weave in Ends: Finally, use a tapestry needle to weave in all loose ends. This will give your blanket a clean and polished finish.
