To knit this item requires some experience in “fair isle” knitting, definitely not for complete beginners. As an experienced knitter, it was frustrating to receive all the lovely Rowan yarn but no way to get started. The 12-page glossy pamphlet that came with the yarn could so easily have included the charts instead of the empty pages for the knitter’s own comments.

Product Description
This Knit Along is a celebration of traditional stitching and thoughtful making. Worked in Rowan Felted Tweed, a yarn renowned for its character and depth of colour, the blanket brings together a series of beautiful heritage-inspired motifs. It is designed to be knitted in one piece from the bottom up, with a border picked up and worked around the edges once the blanket is complete.
The pattern will be released over eight weeks and includes seven stranded colourwork charts followed by a final release focusing on the border and finishing. The instructions are written for knitting flat in knit and purl rows. If you prefer to knit in the round, an extra tutorial demonstrating how to add a steek will be provided, allowing you to choose the approach that suits you best.
At its heart, this project is about slowing down, enjoying the process, and creating something meaningful - a blanket that reflects time, care, and craft, and that can truly become a family heirloom.

A Clay 177 - 5
B French Mustard 216 - 1

Great products
The yarn sheds a little and can knot up, but it's easy to work with otherwise. It's my first time doing stranded color work, and I'm happy with what is "appearing" as I knit.
