Head for the woods with this blanket of colorful campers. Work as shown in Cascade 220 Superwash or from stash.

Worked in blocks of two types: Campers and Trees. which are sewn into strips. Blocks are sewn into horizontal strips. Horizontal strips are joined with ‘sashing’ strips. Borders are worked from stitches picked up and knitted on the edges of the blanket.

All pieces are worked with basic shaping (increases and decreases). The Window only uses Intarsia. Techniques to explore are pick up and knit and 3-needle bind off. Video tutorials for general techniques and specific steps are linked to the pattern. Download includes full 18-page pattern, and coloring pages file to experiment with your own color ideas.
