Pink Heart Chunky Blanket Knitting Pattern

This heart knit blanket is one big pink heart on an ivory ground, tilted slightly so it sits on the diagonal instead of standing straight. The shape fills most of the blanket, with a deep notch at the top and a long point that runs down toward the corner, and there is nothing else on the field to distract from it. It comes from a simple two color graphghan chart, 30 stitches by 60 rows, and makes a Valentine’s Day gift that takes an evening rather than a season.

The Pink Heart Chunky Blanket Knitting Pattern keeps everything in two shades. A plain ivory field surrounds the heart, the pink carries the whole shape, and the diagonal tilt is what gives the design its movement. Every stitch counts on a shape this size, so the curves read clean and smooth from right across the room.

Finger knitting with colorwork means working the design row by row, changing colors as you go to build up the pixel-style graphic. The Pink Heart Chunky Blanket Knitting Pattern is worked in stockinette stitch, and you can follow the colorwork chart, the row-by-row written instructions, or the color blocks, whichever feels most comfortable for you.

What’s Inside the Pink Heart Chunky Blanket Knitting Pattern

The Pink Heart Chunky Blanket Knitting Pattern includes a colorwork graph chart with gridlines every 10 stitches, the same chart divided into sections for easy home printing, row-by-row written instructions, color block guidance, and a printable PDF. Directional arrows on every row show which way to work, so the lettering does not come out mirrored. Always read each row from left to right and use the arrow only for the knitting direction. To save time, take time to check your gauge, as it sets the finished size of the Pink Heart Chunky Blanket Knitting Pattern.
