Malabrigo | First Winter Blanket - Knitting Pattern
Cosy, colourful and made for snuggling, the First Winter Blanket is a wonderfully satisfying project for bringing warmth and personality into the home. With three colours working together throughout the design, it offers plenty of room to play with combinations, from calm and understated to cheerful and vibrant.
The pattern is designed for Malabrigo Rios, a worsted-weight superwash merino wool that is soft, durable and beautifully suited to blankets. You can choose any three-colour combination you like, making it easy to create a blanket that complements your home or reflects your favourite colours. The sample versions show just how differently the design can look depending on the palette, with each combination creating its own mood.
For inspiration, try Paris Night, Apple Green and Natural for a fresh contrast, Glazed Carrot, Frank Ochre and Natural for warm autumnal tones, or Pearl, Water Green and Natural for a softer, more serene look. Of course, these are just starting points. The First Winter Blanket is an invitation to rummage through your favourite colours and create a combination that feels uniquely yours.
