AKA Sorority Finger Knit Blanket Pattern

This AKA Sorority Finger Knit Blanket Pattern works an Alpha Kappa Alpha portrait into a chunky graphghan, 32 stitches wide and 70 rows tall. A Black woman with a full afro fills the top, with brown skin, pink lips and gold hoop earrings. Below her, AKA is spelled in pink block letters outlined in lime green. It comes with a colorwork chart, row-by-row written instructions and easy color blocks, worked left to right in jumbo plush yarn, no needles needed.

Pink and green carry the whole design, the signature Alpha Kappa Alpha colors. This is a bold, pixel-style throw for sorority sisters and anyone who wants to wear their letters proud. The AKA Sorority Finger Knit Blanket Pattern keeps every detail crisp, from the hoop earrings to the block lettering.

Finger knitting with colorwork means working the design row by row, changing colors as you go to build up the pixel-style graphic. The AKA Sorority Finger Knit Blanket 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 AKA Sorority Finger Knit Blanket Pattern

The AKA Sorority Finger Knit Blanket Pattern includes a colorwork graph with gridlines every 10 stitches, divided into sections for easy printing, along with row-by-row written instructions and color block guidance. Everything arrives as a printable PDF, so you can work from the chart or the written rows, whichever you prefer.

The AKA Sorority Finger Knit Blanket Pattern uses directional arrows to show which way each row runs, and you always read every row from left to right so the design stays centered and never comes out mirrored. Check your gauge before you start, since it sets the finished size of the blanket.
