DESCRIPTION
Cozy and opulent, the herringbone throw has all the thoughtful charms of a hand-knit treasure but finishes in record time for a blanket!
It all starts using the herringbone knit stitch with a super squishy bulky yarn, that makes everything quick and easy.
Combining classic knitted herringbone stitches with a playful wink of fringes, you will have a beautiful balance of practical and playful!

The herringbone knitting pattern is very simple, just a 2-row repeat of knitting and slipping stitches. The rows swiftly multiply, forming a thick, plush texture known as herringbone.
This herringbone knit stitch blanket pattern is knit from the bottom up, worked flat (back and forth).
