Fair & Square

> Espace Tricot is a yarn store in > Montreal, Canada. Discover our yarns > here! [www.espacetricot.com][1] Fair & Square is a happy little baby blanket knit in the round from the center out. The fun stripes provide an opportunity to play with colour and the transitional knit/purl row between each stripe lends lovely texture and dimension. Knit with Rowan Baby Merino Silk DK, a machine washable blend of merino wool and silk, this blanket is squishy and soft and easy to care for – a perfect choice for the little ones in your life. Our sample is a generous 41″ square but the blanket can be easily reduced by eliminating colours. Notes: Due to the construction, the blanket needs to be wet blocked and stretched after finishing, which changes the gauge to about 4.5 sts/inch. The first four colour stripes use up the whole ball of yarn. The following three have a bit left over. The border of the sample size used 3 balls of yarn. Modification instructions for a 32” square are provided in the pattern. ***Pattern has been updated!*** After Rows 1 and 2, it should say "Repeat rows 1 and 2 until there are 28 sts on each needle" (the original pattern said 29 sts). Apologies for the confusion!
