| Blankets From Tosh, Cascade, & More! Shawl We Get to Blanket Business? | | |
As autumn begins to close in, we have to ask ourselves - what are we going to make?
We began thinking of our favorite cold weather activities (besides knitting and crocheting, of course!) and had a moment of realization. There is quite literally no better feeling than wrapping up in a blanket, sinking into the couch, arms wrapped around the ones we love (whether it be a person or a pet!), and throwing on our favorite fall flicks!
To help make that comfy, cozy sensation feel even MORE homey- we've rounded up all our favorite blanket patterns for you ahead of the cold season! Get these projects on your needles and hooks now and have them complete before Jack Frost comes nipping at your nose!

Cozy Up with Cascade!
One of the most exciting things about starting a new project is the plethora of colorful skeins you get to acquire! That's why Cascade had to top this list! Bring together the colors of the rainbow with these picturesque picks:

This blanket reminds us of those refreshing days after the rain showers when you can see a faint hint of a rainbow cascading over the town. Hence the name Cascading Rainbows Blanket!
Utilize the 11 different colorways found in this project and marvel at the subtle motifs found throughout the pattern to create the perfect blanket to snuggle up in on those rainy days!

Remember that aforementioned list of favorite fall activities? Upon thinking, we had to include those weekends spent up at the lake.
Whether you're in a tent or you're more of a glamping-in-an-RV kind of person (we don't judge!), there's no doubt that the Camp Along Blanket is more than perfect for the occasion! Put together rows of trees and multi-patterned campers to bring along to your next outdoor getaway!

Get your hooks ready because Cascade is hosting a Crochet Along for The Peacock Plume Afghan!
Installments will be released on a weekly basis every Wednesday starting September 21st and running through November 16th for a total of 9 installments! Just like the lavish bird, you won't be able to help but stare at this blanket's beauty and detail when finished! Stock up now!

A Little More Wallet-Friendly
There's no beating around the bush... we know blankets can be a little pricey. Trust us when we say we'd make all of these if we had the funds, but that's just not realistic! That's why we have a few more affordable choices for you here! Lower price does not mean they're any less beautiful or warm and snuggly, it just means they're more accessible for everyone!

Starting off with the Scheepjes Colour Wheel Blanket, this project uses 24 different hues with one joining color to create a festivity for the eyes!
Imagine fireworks dancing on a chalkboard sky, releasing the brightest rainbow hues only for the beauty to disappear from your eyes within seconds. Magical, right?! Capture that feeling forever and get this on your crochet hooks now!
|
There are just some blankets we see and think "Wow! I need to get that on my needles, like yesterday!" That's how we feel looking at the Berroco Parquet Blanket!
Create a beautiful mosaic pattern with a modular knitting technique and prepare to reach for this blanket every day!

And Just Like That...
All of us knitters out there who love the iconic Carrie Bradshaw surely spotted the blanket she was toting around New York City in the series' recent spinoff! What many may not know is that this accessory is actually an oversized, dramatically draped shawl! Big fringe, colorful yarn, and simple stockinette make this accessory a must-have!
|
You can't tell us The Carrie Blanket Shawl isn't the most ravishing accessory of fall! Shown here in Madelinetosh ASAP yarn in Texas Tulips, create a whirlwind of life with just one colorway! And we seriously love the duality of this project, I mean a blanket and shawl all in one?! C'mon!
