Back by popular demand - the Comfort Blanket knitalong returns for what I think is the fifth year running. We started in 2019 and although we may have lost a year somewhere in the pandemic we are still going strong.
For the unitiated this is a KAL for those who have bought my e-book 'How to knit a mitered square blanket'.
On purchasing the e-book you get a link to a new-for-2024 dedicated Facebook group. The link to the Facebook group is on the back page of the e-book. The e-book also contains the pre-KAL information on yarn choices and blanket square sizes so that you have a little time for plotting and planning before we get started on May 13.
The KAL originally ran over a 4 week period but don't worry, I'm not expecting you to knit a blanket in a month. Instead each week we focus on a different aspect of knitting a mitered square blanket, giving you time to experiment and plan what will hopefully be a long-lived and much loved project.
If you are new to the joys of mitered square blankets allow me to pursuade you of some of the benefits:
perfect for stashbusting
allow you to play with colour
squishy garter stitch
no need for seaming - squares are joined as you go
endlessly adaptable - go as large as you like or make a small lap blanket

If you have any questions please just email me or pop a comment below and I’ll do my best to get back to you as soon as possible
Returning KAL’ers
If you took part in a previous years KAL or if you’ve bought the e-book before and are yet to get started, you are more than welcome to join the group too. Just keep an eye on your emails (the email you used when you purchased the e-book) and I’ll let you know as soon as the Facebook group is open for business.
