Materials Needed

  • Yarn: Super bulky weight yarn (approximately 600 yards)
  • Needles: US 15 (10mm) knitting needles
  • Scissors: For cutting yarn
  • Tapestry needle: For weaving in ends

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Cast On: Begin by casting on 80 stitches using your super bulky weight yarn. Ensure your cast-on is loose enough to allow for flexibility in the edges.
  2. Row 1 (Right Side): Knit all stitches across the row. This establishes the foundation of your throw.
  3. Row 2 (Wrong Side): Purl all stitches across the row. This will create a nice contrast to the knit row.
  4. Row 3: Begin creating the textured waves. Work the following pattern: *Knit 2 stitches (K2), Purl 2 stitches (P2)* and repeat from * to the end of the row. This creates the first wave pattern.
  5. Row 4: Continue with the wave pattern: *Purl 2 stitches (P2), Knit 2 stitches (K2)* and repeat from * to the end of the row. This will create the undulating texture.
  6. Row 5: Knit all stitches across the row. This row will smooth out the texture and provide a break in the pattern.
  7. Row 6: Purl all stitches across the row. This will again create a contrast and prepare for the next wave pattern.
  8. Repeat Rows 3-6: Continue repeating Rows 3 through 6 until your throw measures approximately 50 inches in length. Make sure to end with Row 6 to maintain the pattern consistency.
  9. Bind Off: Once your throw reaches the desired length, bind off all stitches loosely. This will ensure that the edge of your throw remains flexible and doesn’t pull tight.
  10. Weave in Ends: Using a tapestry needle, weave in any loose ends of yarn to give your throw a clean finish.

The finished throw will measure approximately 50 inches by 60 inches and will feature a series of undulating wave-like textures created by alternating blocks of knit and purl stitches. Enjoy your new cozy addition to your home decor!
