I don’t see anyone. Kindregards, Reply Karen February 26, 2021 at 11:53 pm What stitch would go along with this in terms of stitch height? For example, if I wanted to use this as ribbing on a blanket by stitching 15 in on either side, what would fit for the interior? Thanks!! Reply Pat Case April 2, 2021 at 12:01 am I ❤️ The pattern Royal ridge stitch. Ive found the caron yarn. I cannot find anywhere how many skeins I need to make a twin size blanket. Please help as I wish to buy all the same dye lot. Thank you!! Pat Reply Laura September 16, 2022 at 4:06 pm I love this pattern so much! I used it to make a weighted blanket with an extra chunky yarn and it turned out beautifully. I realized after starting a second blanket that I was accidentally using doubles instead of half-double stitches throughout. Is that going to be a problem? Or can this pattern be done with either? Thanks! Reply Dominika Kisiel October 27, 2022 at 7:40 am Thank you for promoting this beautiful stitch. I love stripy stitches and this one is the perfect replacement for my DC (USA) stripes – less gaps, more texture 🙂 Reply Leave a Reply Cancel Reply Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
