The Brae Winds Blanket Knitting Pattern

Inspired by the windswept hillsides and golden fields, the Brae Winds Blanket captures the quiet rhythm of nature - wheat swaying in the breeze, the soft bleat of distant sheep, and the hush of slow, thoughtful living. This cozy knit is a nod to the gentleness of rural life, where time moves with the seasons and ever stitch is a small act of stillness.
With textured stitches and a grounding weight, the Brea Winds Blanket invites you to slow down and stay a while.
It’s worked in #4 medium/worsted weight yarn on US 8/5mm needles and includes sizes from Security to King - making it as versatile as it is comforting. Whether you’re settling into a quiet evening or knitting through a rainy afternoon, this pattern offers a steady rhythm and the kind of project that feels like home as it grows in your hands.
