Portencross Throw

The Portencross Throw is a beautifully cosy addition to any home. Featuring elegant rows of texture, the stitch pattern is inspired by the rugged coastal landscape near Portencross Castle in Scotland—criss-crossing paths and the scattered texture of pebbled shores. The pattern is written for a lapghan size, with instructions to adjust for a baby blanket, toddler, or small adult throw. It looks stunning in solid colours or bold stripes, making it a versatile project. Whether it’s a housewarming gift, a baby shower present, or a cosy throw for yourself, the Portencross Throw is sure to become a much-loved favourite.
