Let’s start with the Once Upon a Blanket,
also known as Princess Emma’s Baby Blanket from ABC’s Once Upon a Time.
This beautiful pattern created by Caitlin Ffrench is a wonderful design full of some basic and new techniques.
To be able to create this blanket you will need to know how to do the following:
- CO: cast on
- BO: bind off
- garter stitch
- decrease: k2tog: knit-two-together
- increase: kfb: knit-front-and-back
- P: purl
Well my pets, I am here to teach you how.
We will take this in stages.
Step one: Materials Needed
Step two: Cast On
Step three: Garter Stitch
Step four: Bind Off
Step five: fan and feather edge.
Of course once you know the basics you can do anything.
All knitting in comprised of knits and purls, yes really that is it!
I know it sounds too easy and you know what- it is!
Come back soon when we will discuss the materials needed and where to find them.
I found this 2 weeks ago and I’m knitting it for my cousin’s baby that’s due in July. I love it! I love that there’s knitting in this show! I love that Colleen’s taken up knitting! Knitting rocks!
Yes it does. Granny Red has more fun and tips coming your way! Glad you’ve jumped aboard with us.
I remember the screaming and cheering that went on in the house when MaryM picked up Emma’s blanket….LOL!…YAAAAY!!!!!
and then the groans and moans through the house as she shook it off…. and put it back down in the box…… GGRRRRRRR….NO! OOOOoooooohhhh!…. LOL!
