Betty Boop ILY Knit Chunky Blanket Pattern

Betty Boop ILY Knit Chunky Blanket Pattern

Some characters never go out of style, and Betty Boop is the queen of them all. Here she is in full pinup swing, black bob and spit curls, a red bow tucked behind one ear, gold hoops swinging, throwing the ILY sign for “I love you” like she means it. Her little black dress and red sash pop against a warm cream field, camel skin, red lips, the works. The Betty Boop ILY Knit Chunky Blanket Pattern turns that beloved vintage sweetheart into a jumbo yarn graphghan, a colorwork graph chart you work with your hands and nothing else.

On the chart she stands full length, one hand raised in the ILY sign, red heels below, gold earrings catching the light. The cute retro face reads clearly across the whole blanket, which is exactly what you want from the Betty Boop ILY Knit Chunky Blanket Pattern at this size.

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

The Betty Boop ILY Knit Chunky Blanket Pattern includes a colorwork graph with gridlines every 10 loops, divided into sections for easy printing, along with row-by-row written instructions and color block guidance, all in a printable PDF. Everything you need to knit the design is in one place.

Directional arrows show which way each row runs, and you always read every row from left to right. The cast-on row is your foundation row, so you do not count it. Check your gauge before you start, since your tension decides the finished size, and note this is an advanced make with six colors and single-loop details.

Chart size: 33 loops x 80 rows.
Color palette used in this design (6 colors): Cream, Black, Camel, Red, Gold, and White.
