Materials Needed

• Yarn: Bulky weight yarn in forest green, moss, and cream
• Needles: US 10 (6.0 mm) knitting needles
• Gauge: 10 stitches and 20 rows = 4 inches in moss stitch

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cast On: Begin by casting on 120 stitches using your US 10 (6.0 mm) knitting needles. Make sure your stitches are not too tight, as this will affect the overall drape of the blanket.
2. Row 1: Knit the first row by following this pattern: *K1, P1*. Repeat from * to the end of the row. This creates the foundation of your moss stitch.
3. Row 2: For the second row, switch the pattern to *P1, K1*. Repeat from * to the end of the row. This alternating pattern is what gives the blanket its unique texture.
4. Repeat Rows: Continue to repeat Rows 1 and 2 until your blanket measures 60 inches in length. It’s important to measure your work periodically to ensure you reach the desired length.
5. Bind Off: Once you have reached the 60-inch mark, it’s time to bind off. To do this, knit the first two stitches, then use your left needle to lift the first stitch over the second stitch and off the needle. Knit another stitch and repeat this process until you have bound off all stitches.
6. Weave in Ends: After binding off, use a tapestry needle to weave in any loose ends from your yarn. This will give your blanket a clean finish and ensure that no yarn is left hanging.

Congratulations! You have now completed your Mossy Meadow Textured Blanket. Enjoy snuggling up with it on chilly evenings or displaying it as a beautiful addition to your home decor.
