Mitered Corner Blanket In New Colors

Our wonderfully watercolor-y Mitered Corner Blanket is now available in two glorious new palettes! The super fresh and punchy Dawn and Mountain color combos join our classic bundles, Warm and Cool, for a total of four equally stunning options.

The Dawn palette is an explosion of morning sunlight, ranging from yellows and whites to pinks and oranges. This is how you wake up on the right side of the bed! The Mountain bundle is a landscape of hillside purples, snowy summits, and sky-high blues, a real breath of fresh air.

To create these prisms of color, you combine two strands of our fingering-weight Linen Quill, a mixture of highland wool, alpaca, and linen that embodies nature’s raw beauty. It comes in dozens of colors, allowing us to plumb the extremes, from the deepest depths to the highest highs.

Whatever colors call your name, the Mitered Corner Blanket pattern remains a truly artful next-level project, a masterful study in color and construction that is as close to painting as knitting gets. Without a single stitch of sewing, you’ll build each block by picking up stitches along the edge of an adjoining square… Easy, fascinating, and fun!

Choose a Mitered Corner Blanket Bundle in any of our four gorgeous palettes and in two sizes: Small or Large Throw. It’s an incredible knitting journey, the ultimate project and accomplishment to put the spring in your winter!
