As part of the Sun and Fog Fall 2022 Leaves, presenting the Dancing Stars Blanket. Nothing says autumn like a warm, cozy blanket to snuggle with on the sofa. After a hike on a brisk fall day, enjoying the foliage. A cup of tea or mulled wine. Watching a crackling fire, with its hiss, sparks, and pops of light and color.
Reminds me of dancing stars.

Knit in a six-color palette reminiscent of autumn leaves Dancing Stars is a chunky weight color-blocked blanket with a rib border, and garter stitch ridges between sections of star stitch. It features three stitch patterns – rib, garter stitch ridges and the star stitch, which if you look closely, resembles a group of leaves. Color and textural changes keep the knitting interesting to all skill levels. Dancing Stars has three size options. Size 1: 30” by 37”/76 by 94cm (Stroller) Size 2: 35” by 51”/89 by 129 cm (Lap Blanket) Size 3: 50” by 63”/127 by 160 cm (Throw)
