Inspiration & Description & Process

I’ve always been more of a crocheter than a knitter, but after making the crochet Victoria wattle blanket and the crochet chevron circus blanket, I thought I’d try my hand out on a knit blanket! I’ve never made much knit projects until this knit seersucker diamond blanket came to light.

I made sure that the pattern only had knits and purls—which are the easiest beginner knit stitches—for this blanket. For any future knit blankets that could arrive in the future on this blog, they’re sure to be just as simple and beginner friendly as this one!

This blanket took way too long to finish because I was indecisive on whether to use two sorts of stitch patterns in between. Though I gave up after trying out almost three different stitches before staying with the seersucker stitch for the entire project excluding the knit borders.

Though it can get a little difficult to remember the stitches sometimes, this is definitely a wonderful project for even beginner knitters to try making!
