Antique Mystique

This blanket is quite textured yet fun and easy going, a real stress absorber! I cannot wait to see
all the different colour - ways everyone will be coming up with! The pattern has a repeat section
to achieve any desired size!

I hope you enjoy making this blanket as much as I did designing it!

Yarn, hook and other requirements:

Any DK or lighter weight yarn and colour way of your choice will work just fine! Any preferred
hook size ( I used 4 mm) will also be fine as long as you use the same size through out. You can
use one solid and one variegated yarn colour, yarn cakes on their own or paired with a solid, or
a variety of colours paired with a solid. You can really let your imagination run wild.

You will require approximately 5500 m/ 6000 yards for the (4 repeat) 1.9 m X 1.9 m Queen sized
blanket. The 3 repeat blanket I made with Elle - Colour crush yarn in colour 562 Wanna Peach
of me (200g/600m) and used 5 balls (3000 m/ 3280 yards) to achieve a 1.55 m X 1.55 m blanket.
