Ribbonwood Blanket

The Ribbonwood Blanket is a square version of my popular triangular Ribbonwood Shawl pattern.

The blanket is knit circularly from the centre out. One iteration of the Ribbonwood motif advances down each quarter of the wrap, then grows into three, and finally expands into a deep cabled lace border. I devised a decorative central spine motif which is used to expand the piece as grows into a large square. This little flower-like motif is picked up again at the very edge of the shawl and ties everything together in a cabled-lace extravaganza.
