Lacy knitted blankets free patterns

Lake Minneso Throw

The interlocking hearts motif and other textural stitches caught my eye immediately. This blanket, however, doesn’t look overly elegant – and I mean it in a good way! Universal Yarn designers brought the casual feel by using tweed yarn, which has a rustic texture to it.

Megadahlia

Did you know that you can knit circular blankets? Of course, you can, and this blanket by Franklin Habit is beautiful proof of that. The floral motif in the center is the starting point, and then lacy stitches create what look like circles in the water. If you want to achieve such a drape, definitely go for lacy stitches.
