Colorful Bulky Knit Blanket

"An easy Bulky Knit Blanket Free Pattern that uses three strands of yarn held together to quickly knit up an afghan/blanket. By holding multiple strands of yarn together, we create a really nice chunky knit that is bulky and yet quick to finish. I love how pretty the huge stitches look, giving it a trendy look that would look great in your house, thanks to the large size US 50 needles used. This is a beginner project."

Materials List

This is a very simple blanket pattern just made with rib stitch, great for a beginner knitter. You use three strands of super bulky/super chunky yarn held together and big needles so it comes out very plush and comfy. The designer tells you how to make it wider if you want. This could be a great stash buster pattern since you can vary the colors and width of the stripes.
