LOOPES BLANKET is knitted in a very simple pattern, using garter stitch, as well as a simple stitch pattern of yarn overs and knitting 3 stitches together. The pattern looks advanced, but is actually very easy to knit. The pattern includes both a charted and a written pattern.
The blanket can be worked in
LØVFALD, but you can also work it in either
ØKOLOGISK SOMMERULD or
ØKOLOGISK PIMABOMULD.
