Welcome to the pattern for my Crash Course Blanket Knit edition!

This pattern is designed to hold your hand through picking up your needles for the first time in January, and span the year while learning a new technique and a new square every month. In December you’ll join the squares together for a finished throw blanket just in time for the holidays!

This pattern is being taught in a class throughout 2025 at Northwest Wools in Portland OR.

The Crash Course Blanket is a work in progress and being written throughout the year 2025, new blocks will be published (hopefully) on a monthly basis as I finalize the written instructions. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns you have about the patterns!
