Delta Dear Blanket Finger Knitting Pattern
The Delta Dear Blanket Finger Knitting Pattern features a bold graphic design built around the distinctive symbols and colours associated with Delta Sigma Theta. The centre of the blanket features a stylised purple African violet, the official flower of the sorority, with green leaves and a warm yellow centre. The flower sits above the red graphic lettering, while broad crimson-red bands frame the top and bottom of the design against an ivory background.
The composition has the clean, graphic quality of a traditional colorwork graphghan, with the African violet providing the focal point and the red lettering creating a strong horizontal rhythm across the blanket. The Delta Dear Blanket Finger Knitting Pattern uses five colours – Ivory, Red, Purple, Green, and Yellow – to create the flower, foliage, lettering, and surrounding bands in a clear pixel-style format.
Finger knitting with colourwork means working the design row by row, changing colours as you go to build up the graphic image. The pattern is worked in stockinette stitch, and you can follow the colourwork chart, the row-by-row written instructions, or the colour blocks, whichever feels most comfortable for you.
What’s Included in the Delta Dear Blanket Finger Knitting Pattern
The Delta Dear Blanket Finger Knitting Pattern includes a 38-stitch by 78-row colourwork graph with gridlines, row-by-row written instructions, and colour block guidance in a printable PDF. Directional arrows show which way each row is worked, helping you keep the African violet and lettering correctly aligned rather than accidentally mirroring the design.
Always read each row from left to right, following the direction indicated by the arrow. Before beginning, check your gauge with your chosen jumbo yarn, as your knitting tension will determine the finished measurements of the blanket.

Skill level: Intermediate. The basic finger knitting technique is straightforward, but the design uses five colours and several colour changes to create the African violet, lettering, leaves, and geometric border sections.
Delta Dear Blanket Finger Knitting Pattern Design
The African violet is the central botanical detail in this graphghan design, worked in purple with green leaves and a small yellow centre. Its placement above the red lettering gives the blanket a clear focal point while connecting the floral motif with the traditional visual language of Delta Sigma Theta.
The lower section features the Delta Dear lettering in red, surrounded by ivory negative space, while matching red bands across the upper and lower edges give the blanket a structured finish. The resulting design has the appearance of a large knitted graphic or pixel blanket, making the chart suitable for finger knitting with chunky or jumbo yarn.
Finished Measurements for the Delta Dear Blanket Finger Knitting Pattern

Chart size: 38 stitches x 78 rows.
The attached pattern chart does not provide specific gauge, finished measurements, needle sizes, or yarn quantities, so these details should not be added until they are confirmed from the finished pattern specifications.
