Plaited Throw
Swatching stitch patterns is a unique thrill. How does an extra yarn over completely change the look of a pattern? When you cast on an extra stitch, what happens? And in this case, what marvel takes place to create a fabric that so closely resembles a woven basket or a plaited braid?

The marvel, it turns out, is simply a matter of “twisting” the stitches. You work the second stitch on the needle and then the first, so that one crosses over the other, much like weaving. It’s a simple two-row pattern that we walk you through step-by-step, so that you too will be marveling at your Plaited Throw!
Yarn lovers, if you adore the yarn used in this project, you’ll love exploring all of our other yarn collections! Discover over 45 thoughtfully designed yarns in nearly every natural fiber and in every spectacular color you can imagine. Only available here at Purl Soho’s online yarn store, where every skein is created with care and your creativity in mind!

For this project, we double our Linen Quill, a fingering weight blend of fine wool, alpaca and linen. Doubled and plaited, it has a beautiful weight and warmth, and in Rose Granite, enough personality to make a statement! -Kristy

Materials

- 6 skeins of Purl Soho’s Linen Quill, 50% fine highland wool, 35% alpaca, and 15% linen. Each skein of this fingering weight yarn is 439 yards/ 100 grams; approximately 2,500 yards required. We used Rose Granite.
- US 11 (8mm), 32-inch circular needles
We also tried this stitch in Heirloom White (left) and Trout Brown (right). Also pretty!
Gauge
22 stitches = 4 inches in the stitch pattern
Size
Finished Dimensions: Approximately 38 inches wide x 48 inches long
Notes
For this pattern you’ll use the Linen Quill doubled. To do that, just pull a strand from two balls of yarn!
Stitch Pattern
There are lots of variations on woven or plaited stitches. Here’s how we do this one…
Row 1 (right side): *Insert the right needle through the back loop of the second stitch on the left needle. Wrap the yarn counterclockwise around the right needle and knit a stitch, but do not remove the second stitch from the left needle. Then, knit the first stitch on the needle as usual, and allow both stitches to fall off the left needle, repeat from * to end row.
Row 2 (wrong side): Purl 1 stitch, then… *purl the second stitch on the left needle by inserting the right needle through the front loop and purling a stitch. Do not remove the second stitch from the left needle. Then, purl the first stitch on the needle as usual, and allow both stitches to fall off the left needle, repeat from * to end of row.
NOTE: If you want to change the sizing or use this stitch pattern for a different project, cast on a multiple of 2 stitches.
Pattern
Loosely cast on 210 stitches, with yarn held doubled (see Notes, above). We used a basic Long Tail Cast On.
Row 1 (right side): *Knit second stitch on left needle through the back loop without removing stitch from needle, then knit the first stitch, slipping both stitches from needle, repeat from * to end of row.
Row 2 (wrong side): P1, *purl second stitch on left needle without removing stitch from needle, then purl the first stitch, slipping both stitches from needle, repeat from * to last stitch, p1.
Repeat Rows 1 and 2 until piece measures 48 inches from cast-on edge, ending with Row 2.
Bind off all stitches knitwise.
Weave in ends and block if desired!

Hi Purl Soho,
I am always so inspired by your web site and suggestions and this time is no different. I am keen to knit this blanket and was wondering – is it possible (or advisable?) to knit this blanket in two different colors? I originally was thinking stripes but as I write this am thinking I would pull the strands from two different colored skeins. What do you think?
Thanks so much.
Sara Lacombe
Hi Sara,
Thanks for writing in! I am not sure how it would look alternating two colors! I have only seen the stitch knit in a single color. I would recommend knitting up a small swatch with the two colors that you are thinking of using or two colors that you have scraps of to see if the look is pleasing! This stitch pattern is worked over a multiple of 2 stitches, so just cast on an even number and follow the stitch pattern as written.
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
allergic to wool wish you would give other options
Hi Sindy,
Thanks for writing in! I am so sorry about your wool allergy! We are happy to make suggestions for alternate yarns. I think that Kalinka 100% Linen would work well. Given the difference in yardage, you would need 8 skeins of Kalinka! 10 skeins of Royal Alpaca might also work although please do note that it is a lot more drapey than our Linen Quill.
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
This stitch would make a lovely winter scarf or infinity cowl. How would you do this stitch in the round?
Hi Jill,
Thanks for writing in! I am afraid that this pattern does not translate well to an in the round pattern. If you would like to make a cowl or otherwise knit in the round, I would suggest sewing up the two sides when you are done. While this will leave a seam, I still think that it could be quite nice!
Best,
Cassy
What a brilliant idea. I have always loved this stitch. This would make a fabulous fabric for a blanket!
Wow! Another beautiful “Modern Classic” project from the very talented Purl SoHo design team. Thank you
Wonderful! I’ve been wanting to knit a blanket but I don’t care for the typical knitted styles. This is perfect!
I’m dreaming of making this pattern into a scarf! Thanks for another beautiful gem of a pattern + tutorial to inspire creatives everywhere!
I think it’s going to be a poncho for me!!
I would love to make a poncho if you could share the pattern I would be most appreciative!!
Wow I love this. Can’t wait to cast this on.
The pattern looks great!! However, I only knit the European way (learned to knit in Germany; my knitting vocabulary is German) and would I love, a) a translation if possible, b) a website which has German instructions for the pattern or c) a You Tube video with instructions for European knitting style.
Any chance you can help? I already searched without any success as I do not know the German name of this pattern.
Many thanks in advance for your time and response.
A knitting Jersey Girl!! 😉
Hi M,
Thanks for writing in! I am sorry that you are having some challenges with this pattern! The great thing about knitting is that whether your are left handed or right handed or you knit English or Continental(European or German), you will follow the same directions and should get the same results! At the shop, we have about half and half (English and Continental) and things work out nearly identically for all of us! The only difference is the hand in which you are holding the yarn however, the instructions can be followed nearly the same.
At this time our patterns are only available in English. I am not aware of German translations for knitting terms but I am sure that they are out there!
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
Reminds me of a Patons pattern from years ago that was in two colours. This looks so beautiful and easy too, I can’t wait to get started!
Beautiful throw, but I’m thinking toss pillows for the sofa…
Yep, definitely going to use this stitch for pillows!
I had to go to the pattern to find out if this was knit or crochet.
Could you state in the email or pattern name if something is knit or crochet?
Hi Brandy,
That’s a good point! Thank you for making it and we will do our best to make that clearer in the future!
Whitney
The first paragraph talks about needles not hooks, that’s a hint it’s a knitting pattern.
Love love your patterns and yarn. I only wish you would show your visual instructions in VIDEO. I don’t follow the still shots very well. Thanks for the consideration..
Hi Terry,
Thanks for writing in and for the kind words! While we do not have a video at present we appreciate the request and will certainly keep your request in mind for the future!
Best,
Cassy
A scarf for me too – what a beautiful pattern!
I love the look of this pattern. If I want to make it bigger, how many stitches should I cast on and how much more yarn should I order?
Hi Susan,
Thanks for writing in! If you would like to make a wider blanket, cast on a multiple of 2 stitches. As the gauge for this project is 22 stitches = 4 inches in the stitch pattern, you will decide on the width that you would like to knit and multiple the number if inches by 5.5 and cast on the nearest even number. You can then follow the pattern as written!
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
I would like to make this as a man’s scarf, I think it would be very elegant and masculine. I’m still a beginner (well, a knitter of several years on a long, slow learning curve…) Could you suggest number of stitches to cast on for a scarf and a recommended length?
Hi Anne,
Thanks for writing in! How many stitches to cast on depends on how wide you would like your scarf to be. Our scarves range from 8 to 20 inches wide with most being between 8 and 12 inches wide. The length that we aim for is somewhere between 60 and 80 inches. This allows for a nice wrap around. This pattern has a gauge 22 stitches = 4 inches in the stitch pattern and is worked over a multiple of 2 stitches. So if you would like to knit a 12 inch wide scarf, you would cast on 88 stitches. You can then follow the pattern as written until you get to your desired length!
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
I just saw the beautiful throw and decided I wanted to use the stitch pattern to make a scarf. I haven’t read through the pattern yet so thought I would ask what the repeat is. Do I just cast on an even number of stitches?
Hi Barbara,
Thanks for writing in! You are correct! This pattern is worked over a multiple of 2 stitches! Cast on an even number and work as written and you will be all set!
Best,
Cassy
I think you have the stitch pattern correct within the pattern, but not in the actual stitch pattern explanation. On row two, you need to p1 before starting the cables, in order to offset the plaits (necessitating a p1 at the end, too).
Hi Judy,
Thank you so much for pointing this out! We’ve edited the explanation to better reflect the actual stitch pattern. I’m sure you’ve saved many people some head scratching… Thank you!
Whitney
Yet another brain twister…I cannot quite get my head around the movements. Is it perhaps on video.
Hi Heather,
Thanks for writing in! We do not have a video for this stitch pattern but we will certainly keep it in consideration for the future. When I am having difficulties with a pattern, I like to say it out loud to myself while I am doing it. Sometimes it clears things up for me as it feels like my voice is the teacher and I am the student.
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
Thank you again for a beautifully textured piece. Not only is this yarn a pleasure to knit with, it will now be used to create another home essential!
Julie
Hi, looks beautiful, I love the stitch. Would one heavier strand rather than the two fingering make a lot of difference to the texture?
Hi Penny,
Thanks for the question. One heavy strand would definitely change the texture of this stitch, but I think it would still be beautiful. Give it a go and let us know how it goes!
-Adam
This would make a very nice muffler for my husband. Does this stitch curl up like stockinette? I prefer not having to block.
Hi Autumn,
Thank you for writing in. This stitch does not curl much, but the yarn does require some blocking — at least steam blocking. The linen does kink and can look messy if not blocked in some way. The best way to block this is to wet block it, but steam will do as well. It makes a world of difference!
-Adam
This is beautiful, and I’m wondering if it would work for a table runner?? If you think it would, how much yarn do you think it would it take for a 15″ x 120″ runner? (my mind is getting dizzy trying to figure it out!) Thanks!
Hi Vonda,
Thanks for writing in to us. This sounds like a wonderful idea! According to my math, it seems like six skeins will do (doubled as the pattern) for your table runner. I’d buy one more just in case you’d like it longer. Thanks!
-Adam
This is gorgeous yarn but might be beyond my budget. Can you suggest other yarns that might work?
Hi Sylvia,
Thanks for writing in! We hear you! We totally understand that sometimes our yarn suggestions are more of an inspiration than a reality for many people. In this case, this is the most modestly priced yarn that we carry in the gauge suggested for this project. When looking for an alternate yarn, you will be looking for a yarn with a gauge of 6.5 – 7.5 stitches per inch. This will also be known as fingering weight and you will need about 2,600 yards in total.
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
I wonder how this would look if done in 2 colors – one for RS and one for WS.
Hi Marny,
Thanks for writing us. I’m sure it would look great but you’d first have to find out how to do this stitch in double knitting! I think an easier approach would be to use two different color strands when holding the yarn double. Best of luck and let us know if you get it!
-Adam
I have some hand spun yarn I want to use. I think a long scarf or cowl. If I had enough I would make this size. Just a Question? Would it be hard to join the ends if I did a crotchet cast on?
Hi CarolAnn,
Thanks for writing us! It is possible to do this stitch in a scarf or cowl and I think it would look great! If you want to do a cowl, a provisional cast on will definitely show a “seam” where you graft the two ends together. As long as you don’t mind this, you should consider going for it!
-Adam
In the stitch description you say to wrap the needle counterclockwise in the first stitch first row, but in the pattern you don’t say to do so. Does it make a difference?
Hi Jacky,
Thanks for the question. The stitch description is a detailed breakdown of the stitch and the pattern just lets you know what you do in which row. In the description it tells you to wrap the yarn counter clockwise, but this is also how you’d normally knit off a stitch. Follow the instructions under the description and you should be good to go!
-Adam
-Adam
I normally knit wrapping the yarn clockwise. Just to be clear, the pattern calls for knitting the 2nd stitch on the left hand needle (from behind) wrapping the yarn counter clockwise while keeping it on the needle and then knitting the 1st stitch on the left hand needle ( in my case clockwise). So, are you wrapping each of these stitches differently or have I been knitting the “wrong” way for all these years?
Hi Tracy,
Thanks for writing in! In general, you will wrap the yarn counterclockwise to create a knit or purled stitch. Wrapping the yarn clockwise, turns the stitch so that the right leg of the stitch is in the back as opposed to the front of the work. Ultimately, this will create columns of knits that are twisted slightly towards the right. I have met plenty of knitter’s who do knit this way (even some who knit backwards), and it generally isn’t a problem until they begin a pattern where a new stitch pattern is introduced that requires a counterclockwise wrap. This is one of the things that I love about knitting, that we all do it a little differently!
In the case of this pattern, it might be easiest for you to try the counterclockwise wrap to get the stitch pattern down!
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
I need only the pattern . How to have it?
Claire
Hi Claire,
Thanks for writing in! The pattern can be found above on this page. If you would like to download the pattern as a PDF or print the pattern, you can do so. If you’re on a desktop version of the site, you will find a “print” icon in the right column just below the date and tags. If you’re on a mobile version of the site, you will find a “print” icon below the pattern and above the comments.
Follow the easy on-screen instructions to delete whichever parts of the pattern you don’t want to print or save. For example, you may decide to shorten the pattern by omitting certain images or the list of materials.
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
Beautiful pattern!! You guys are yarn wizards!! So I want to make this but have messy, messy kids and will need to be washing it a LOT. Any recommendations for a superwash yarn that I could use instead of the linen quill?
Hi Jen,
Thank you for writing us. I suggest Cascade 220 Superwash Sport held single or two strands of Anzula Squishy. Both are machine washable and have some great colors! Hope you like the suggestions!
-Adam
-Adam
This is just beautiful. Thinking of making a baby blanket with it. Would the pattern be ok for that? I mean not easy to pull and fairly durable?
Hi Maggie,
This blanket is the perfect size for a baby! As far as the stitch durability, it all depends on the yarn you use. The Linen Quill is very strong and also soft. The stitches are single crossed cables, so there is possibility of pulling, but not likely. Also, pulling can be easily corrected with a crochet hook. Hope this helps you!
-Adam
2 words: Simply Elegant. Totally worthy of your simple, but elegant designs. Thank you.
Thank you Purl Soho. I love your patterns and am looking forward to this next project.
I would really appreciate it if you make a video tutorial for this beautiful pattern..as a non native speaker sometimes patterns can be nightmares! Best
Hi Banu,
Thanks for writing in! While we do not have a video at present we appreciate the request and will certainly keep your request in mind for the future!
Best,
Cassy
Love this blanket–it’s beautiful! Do you think knitting it up in Salt & Pepper would take away from the beautiful texture?
Hi Becky,
Thanks for the lovely comment! I love the texture in this stitch and though “salt and pepper” is quite busy, it could look quite dynamic as well. If it’s the color you are more interested in, you should definitely choose the “salt and pepper” but if it’s the stitch definition, I’d choose a solid color. Thanks!
-Adam
Thank you for this lovely pattern. I’m thinking of knitting it in a brighter color and wonder if Line Weight would be an appropriate substitution? Also wondering if you’ve considered carrying any washable wool yarns? Many of my projects are for kids and young families. As much as I love Purl Soho yarn, it’d be even better to have a few washable options.
Hi Dede,
Line Weight would be a great substitution for a brighter color. As for superwash yarn, I’m not sure if we will carry it in the future but it is a possibility. Thanks!
-Adam
I wish I could quit my job and knit all day. Could it possibly get boring? I can’t wait to make this throw. I want to make something for each of my grandkids and this is perfect- not a huge investment of time and money for little people who may not be so careful, while still being a gift made with love.
Bought the linen quill yarn at Vogue Knitting Live! Excited to get started. Was knitting up a swatch and curious how to count the stitches. Would I be counting each stitch going in the same direction twice, since there are two stitches in each “lean”? How important is the gauge for this blanket. Thanks for your help.
Hi Sharon,
Thanks for writing in and thank you so much for visiting us at Vogue Knitting Live! As this yarn is held doubled, you will treat each set of two strands held together as one stitch. Think of the two strands that you are holding together as one piece of yarn instead of two. They will always be treated as if there were a single strand of yarn for the purposes of this pattern!
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
Love this pattern, but I want to make it in something that’s easier to care for. Is there a cotton or superwash wool that you can recommend?
Hi Michelle,
Thank you for writing us. I suggest Cascade 220 Superwash Sport held single or two strands of Anzula Squishy. Both are machine washable and have some great colors! Hope you like the suggestions!
Happy knitting!
-Adam
Hi there,
I live in South Africa and am so inspired to try this blanket. Unfortunately, we do not get Linen Quill here. Could you perhaps give me an alternative wool which is similar and would knit up the same?
Thanks very much,
Debra
P.S. I LOVE this site and always find inspiring projects!!
Hi Debra,
Thanks for writing in and for your kind words! Our Linen Quill is a rather unique yarn and I am not aware of a similar yarn that is available widely. That said, we do ship internationally and have shipped to South Africa many times! Shipping information can be found here: https://www.purlsoho.com/shipping/
If you would like to use an alternate yarn, you will be looking for a plied yarn with some structure and with a gauge of 6.5 – 7.5 stitches per inch.
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
It’s kinda like magic when knit fabric looks this woven, isn’t it? Beautiful!
Would this pattern work with doubled strands of worsted weight, if I bumped up the needle size? I did see that someone suggested to just use one strand of worsted, but how would that work with this pattern?? Sorry, still a bit of a knitting novice here. 🙂 Thanks!
Hi Anne,
Thanks for writing us. One strand of worsted would give you a similar result as the throw in the picture. Having two strands, however, gives a bit more texture and depth to the blanket. Double stranded worsted would really make the blanket quite thick, but that could be cool if you are going for that effect. I suggest trying a small swatch of double stranded worsted on a US 15 and seeing if you like the stitch definition. Best of luck and happy knitting!
-Adam
I love the look of this stitch. No matter how loose I try to make my stitches I always seem to have trouble knitting through the back of a stitch. It slows me down so much that it just feels like one big struggle. Is there any way around this method?
Hi Lisa,
Thanks for the compliment! Unfortunately there is no way to speed up the stitch. It is rather slow but it does yield a beautiful result! Like most stitches, after some time you’ll get faster and faster at it. Hope you’ll stick with it!
-Adam
I started knitting this blanket and cast on loosely as directed in the pattern. Then I started to complete the second (purl) row and my stitches look much looser than the photo of the finished blanket. Will they tighten up as the pattern goes along? I ripped it out and started it again but when I cast on a little tighter, it makes that first row difficult to complete each stitch. Any suggestions? What type of cast on do you recommend?
Hi Lisa,
Thanks for writing in. I think the best bet is to cast on loosely since this will probably fix itself in wet blocking when the piece is finished. It’s best to also be consistent with your cast on tension. This will give you a smoother edge.
All the best,
Adam
First let me say that it is refreshing to see every question someone asks is answered. I feel comfortable getting an answer.
So in reading the pattern in row 1 you knit the second stitch in from the back and then knit the first stitch from the front. On row 2 you purl 1 and move it to the right needle. Next stitch purled is the second stitch in. (Purled by putting your right needle in from the right side, leave on needle and purl first stitch on the left needle by the same method.
So in row one you have a knit front and back, and in row 2 both are purled from the front?
Hope you understand what I’m asking?
Hi Beth,
I think you’ve got it, but I’ll clarify to make sure you are doing it right. On the knit side you will have two stitches in front of you, the one closest to your right needle is stitch one and the next stitch is stitch two. Knit the second stitch through the back loop (that is to say knitting through the far side of the stitch). Without dropping your old stitch off, swing your right needle around to the front and knit the first stitch as normal. You can now drop both worked stitches off the needle. For the purl side you’ll purl one, then purl into the second stitch, leaving it on the needle and then purl into the first stitch, dropping both worked stitches off the needle. I hope this reiterates what you were thinking!
-Adam
I love the look of this throw.
I have started knitting it but for some reason I end up with 1 stitch less after knitting a row which throws off the pattern. Any ideas as to what is going wrong? I casted on the even amount of stitches and am making sure I drop the correct ones with each stitch
Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for writing in! I am not sure what could be going wrong with your knit row. It could be that 2 stitches accidentally got knit together or that a stitch was accidentally dropped. I would suggest pulling out the row and trying again. If you are still experiencing issues, if you are local, you can certainly visit us at the shop. If you are not local, you can send us some pictures at [email protected] and we will do our best to see if we can see anything in those images that may be the issue.
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
I want to make this but I’m trying to decide on a color. The Rose Granite looks like blush pink on the linen quill page but is defintely reading brown in the knitted example. Does it look brown in person when it’s knitted up? This would be for my 20 year old stepdaughter and she’s more blush pink than brown. Thank you–I just love your patterns and yarn!
Hi Erica,
Thanks for the question. The Rose Granite color definitely reads pink but is dusty and more of a mauve pink than brown. I hope this description helps you decide! Thanks!
-Adam
I am planning to make this blanket for my 20-year old step daughter and am trying to choose a color. I really love the Rose Granite but have a question about the color. On the Linen Quill order page, it looks like blush pink but in your knitted example, it’s definitely reading brown. Does it look more brown than pink in person? Love all of your patterns and yarns! Thanks for your help.
Hi Erica,
Thanks for writing in and what a nice gift for your step daughter! We try our best to get our colors as true as possible but some colors can read so differently in different situations! The Rose Granite is a lovely color that does read like a dark blush pink. I would say that in real life and real light, it reads like a very sophisticated pink.
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
I love this throw and can’t wait to make it! Before I order the yarn and needles, I was thinking I would like to make it larger (approx. 48 x 58 or 60). How much yard should I buy? Also, what length circular US 11 needle do you suggest?
Thank you
Hi Annette,
Thanks for writing in and for the kind words! Based on the measurements that you provided, you would like to make a throw that is about 50% larger. For this you will need 9 skeins in total. I also think that you will want to use a 60″ long circular needle. This will be a little bit longer than you need but you will not have difficulty with too many stitches on the needles!
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
Hi,
I started the plaited throw this evening but the needle size
suggested, US 11, seems way too big. The swatch is extremely loose and
‘holey.’ I’m using fingering weight yarn double stranded as the
pattern calls. It doesn’t look at all like the photo of the throw on
your site. I’m not a loose knitter. Was this needle size a mistake in
the pattern?
Secondly, row 2 starts with p1 and continue in pattern to end of
row…except the cast on calls for even stitches in the count of 2.
This leaves an extra stitch at the end of row 2 that isn’t reflected
in the pattern.
Lastly, when I drop off the first 2 stitches after knitting per the
pattern it leaves a big loop creating an untidy edge. Do you have
suggestions?
I really am looking forward to making this pattern. Whatever
suggestions you can offer I greatly appreciate. Thanks.
Hi Lisa,
Thanks for writing in! We did indeed use US 11s for this project! The stitch pattern is rather dense and the needle size accommodates that denseness. If you pattern is coming out too loose, I would ask if you are getting gauge. If you are not getting gauge, you may need to go up or down a needle size to get the correct gauge. I would suggest knitting and blocking a swatch. Blocking can change a fabric dramatically!
Secondly, I think that I see where the issue may be here. In the stitch pattern section, examples of the rows are given. In the pattern section, we flush out the pattern more completely and row 2 is ended with a P1 that eats up that last stitch.
To your last question, I would suggest checking gauge and blocking. Blocking should help the edging. Additionally, once you have completed a few repeats, things should begin to appear a bit more even.
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
Hi Cassy, thanks so much for your response. I did measure the gauge on US 11 and it seemed I was getting about 3 stitches per inch with the fabric being very loose with holes. I don’t think blocking would have tightened it up enough to resemble the photo. I will say however, it is trickier counting stitches in this pattern rather than stockinette. Do you have any suggestions on doing this correctly? I did drop to a US 10 and it seemed better and even tried a 9 but at that point the hand of the fabric felt to dense even though it looked closer to the photo. I want to achieve the drape evidenced in the photo but without the holes. Being that the yarn you used has Alpaca in it (sadly allergic) does the bloom after blocking account some for the tighter appearance in the photo?
If I wanted to tidy the edges whilst knitting rather than depend on blocking do you suggest starting each row with a slip stitch or a knit/purl stitch depending on RS/WS? Thanks again.
Hi Lisa,
Thanks for writing back! Checking gauge here is indeed a challenge! I am afraid that I have no super easy way to make it simple. I lay my ruler down on the fabric and count the stitches going in one direction as well as the stitches going in the opposite direction over 4 inches and get the correct gauge.
Linen Quill, while having a fair Alpaca content, does not really bloom due to it’s tight twist and the linen and wool content. I will say that this is a lacier pattern and that when held up to the light, I can see through the fabric. Blocking does help this pattern tremendously on finishing! I would suggest that you knit a good sized swatch on US 10s and block it. You can certainly send us a picture at [email protected] and we can take a look to see if it resembles the sample here!
Slipping stitches on the edges of this pattern will not work as the first and last stitch on right side rows are worked specifically in service of the pattern and slipping them would alter the whole texture of the blanket. You may also try an applied i-cord on the swatch to see if that neatens things up or a single crochet could work as well.
I look forward to hearing from you!
Cassy
I want to enlarge the Plaited Throw to 60″ x 72″. I bought 12 skeins of Linen Quill. How many stitches sould I cast on, andwhat size cable should I use? Would a 50″ work? TIA!
Hi Olga,
Thanks for writing in! This lovely pattern works over an even number of stitches and has a gauge of 22 stitches over 4 inches. So for a 60 inch wide blanket, you will want to cast on 330 stitches. With the 12 skeins of Linen Quill, you should be able to get a blanket 60 x60 inches. A 60 inch circular needle should do the trick!
Happy knitting!

The care label says hand wash. For my 60″x60″ blanket, that would not be possible for me. Can this be dry cleaned using Dryel, or at a regular dry cleaner? Or should I re-think my plans for this yarn?
Hi Olga,
Thanks for the question! I suggest you wash the finished blanket in a bathtub or a medium size sink. Knits are supposed to be submerged and left along (no agitation) when washed, so if you have a basin of any kind that will fit the blanket, that should do. Otherwise, you can definitely dry clean the blanket if you have a good dry cleaner whom you trust.
All the best,
Adam
Thanks Adam
My concern is that I have a bad back, and couldn’t/shouldn’t lift the wet blanket. Can you recommend an alternative machine washable yarn that will give similar results?
Hi Olga,
Thanks for getting back to me. I suggest Anzula Squishy held double for a washable substitute. Hope you like it!

Is there a way to print this PurlSoho pattern (and other free patterns) without printing several pages?
Hi Susan,
Great question! After you have clicked the print button on the right haNd side of the pattern page a new window will pop up with a print preview of the pattern. If you click on the drop down menu next to the word “images” you can select “remove images” This will cut down the amount of pages that will print. I hope this helps!
-Marilla
Yes, with the page open, right click your mouse. This will open a new window, scroll to and click on print. this will put you into print preview, most printers are set to “print all” by default, unlike print all and in the space below it where you can type, type in only the pages you wish to print, in this case it is pages 3-7, when I just checked a minute ago. Using their on screen print button typically will not put you into print preview and just print everything by default. Hope this helps.
What bind off technique do you recommend?
Hi Betsy,
Thanks for writing in! For this lovely throw we used a standard pass over bind off and we think that it is nice and neat!
Best,
Cassy
I would love to do this in cotton as a baby blanket, so new parents can have an easier time of washing it. Any suggestions for cotton yarn that would be good for this?
Hello Alexis,
Thank you for reaching out! The nice thing about adjusting blankets is that it is a rectangle so gauge matters much less. I would suggest using Cotton Pure and going up to US 13 or US 15 needles. I would knit a gauge swatch to determine which needle size works best and how many stitches per inch you are getting. Once you have your stitches per inch you will be able to figure out how many stitches to cast on.
Let me know if you have any further questions and good luck!
-Marilla
Hi! If I would like to make this into a blanket and use season alpaca yarn, what would be the needle size that I would need to get? Also, do I have to double up or no, since the yarn is chunkier than linen quill?
Thank you!
Hi Tessa,
Thanks for writing in! You can certainly make this blanket out of 1 strand of Season Alpaca. You will not get exactly the same look as the two strands together but I still think that it will be lovely. The look will be a bit more like our Mini Herringbone Scarf (the stitch patterns are not identical but cousins)! You should be able to use the same size needles but I would certainly recommend knitting a gauge swatch to be sure that you like the fabric at that gauge. You will need 6 skeins of the Season Alpaca to get a blanket of equal size using the yarn held singled.
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
I end up with an odd number of stitches remaining on the left needle when I purl the first stitch. Do I also purl the last stitch on the purl rows?
Thank you,
Virginia
Hello Virginia,
Thank you for reaching out! You are correct- you also purl the last stitch on all purl rows.
Happy knitting!
-Marilla
Do you think this throw would work with Anzula squishy for a more washable option? If so, what size needle would you recommend?
Hi Holly,
Thanks for writing in! I think that this would be lovely in Anzula Squishy! You may be able to use the same needles that we used here. I would certainly recommend knitting a gauge swatch. If the fabric seems a little tight, you may want to go up a needle size!
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
I like the idea of a washable version using Anzula Squishy too! Would you still double the strands? And, I’d like to make it a bit smaller so it’s baby blanket sized. Any suggestions for how much yarn to purchase for a smaller project? Thank you!
Hi Mary,
Great question! You would want to use 2 strands here as well! This is really what gives this blanket it’s texture. How much yarn you will need will very much depend on the actual measurements that you are hoping for. Baby blankets can vary very widely in size and shape! Our baby blankets range from 24 x 28 inches on the smaller end to 41 x 30 inches and 36 x 36 inches on the larger end with a large variation in the middle. For our sample we used roughly 2500 yards of yarn for a blanket that is 38 inches wide x 48 inches long. With that in mind, 4 skeins of Anzula Squishy should get you a blanket that is roughly 33 x 33 inches.
I hope that this helps!
Cassy
I just finished this throw in a merino/angora/silk blend and it is sooooo lovely! Question, though: the cast on and bind of edges are curling. Will blocking help with this?
Hello Allison,
Thank you for reaching out – i’m happy to hear you are enjoying this project! Blocking should relax the fiber enough to fix the curling issue.
I hope this helps and happy knitting!
-Marilla
Hi! If I take your substitution advice and us the washable Anzula Squishy, would I need the same amount of skeins and same kneedle size suggested as a starting point for finding gauge? Any downside to using this yarn as opposed to Linen Quill?
Hello Beth,
Thank you for reaching out- I think this blanket would be beautiful in either of theses yarns! You may be able to use the same needles that we used here, though I would certainly recommend knitting a gauge swatch before jumping in. If the fabric seems a little tight, you may want to go up a needle size. You should also be good with six skeins of Squishy, though it will be cutting it close. If you would like to get an extra skien to be on the safe side, but don’t use it, you can return it within 6 months in its original condition for store credit.
I hope this helps and happy knitting!
-Marilla
Thank you for the beautiful pattern, with gorgeous photos and excellent description/instructions!
I plan on doing the blanket in your lovely Linen Quill Rose Granite and would also like to do another blanket in a lace yarn as well. For the latter, my swatch is much too loose with an 11 needle, and much too tight with a 7. I don’t have an 8, 9 or 10 to make sample swatches and will be ordering the correct needle size along with the Rose Granite. What size needle would you recommend for lace-weight yarn? Thank you!
Hi Stephanie,
Thanks for the kind words! I think a size 10 needle (which is actually two sizes smaller than an 11, skipping size 10.5) would work out best, but you may also want to get a size 9 or 10.5 as well to try depending on how tight or loose you usually knit.
Good luck and happy knitting!
Julianna
Could I use US10 circular needles or should I buy 11? Anything I should do differently using 10? Thanks!
Hello Sarah,
Thank you for reaching out! This throw will likely knit up a bit to tight on a US10, though If you already have a US10 you could always try it out and see if you like the texture it creates or you could try using a slightly thinner yarn.
I hope this helps and let us know if you have any other questions!
Happy knitting,
Marilla
Hi — I love the look and sound of all this. Does the fiber content of Linen Quill tend to be itchy? I find some wools very itchy and others not so much, and am wondering whether the blend here would be alright.
Thanks!
Alina
Hello Alina,
Thank you for reaching out! The 35% of Alpaca creates a cozy softness in combination with the Hearty Highland Wool and Linen. Linen Quill also softens over time, so the more it is used and washed the softer it becomes!
I hope this helps and happy knitting!
-Marilla
Have you a pattern that uses a single strand of linen quill? Our winters are not cold enough to justify heavy layers.
Your patterns and yarns are beautiful, and I really want to try one.
Thank you.
Beth
Hi Beth,
Thanks for the kind words and for reaching out! We do have on blanket that is written for a single strand of Linen Quill, our Knit Four Points Baby Blanket. Although it is a baby blanket, you can certainly cast on more stitches to create a larger blanket! Another option would be to take one of our Linen Quill wraps, such as our Rose Stitch Wrap or Aperture Wrap, and adjust the cast on to the width of the throw you would like to make.
I hope that helps!
Julianna
Hi,
I was so looking forward to knitting your plaited throw as a baby blanket but mom-to-be wants 2 colors, specifically Cotton Pure’s Warm Cider and Yellow Curry. I think I read in previous posts that 2 colors would interrupt the woven appearance of this stitch and it seems that would be the case.
Do you have a pattern that would work well with 2 colors and maybe have the same woven effect? Or just another not too complicated stitch that would work well with this yarn?
Thank you!
Hi Susan,
Thanks for reaching out! What a lovely, richly colored blanket Warm Cider and Yellow Curry will make! While we don’t have any blankets with a similar woven look that would work well with two colors, we do have quite a few other options you may like. Our Tonal Blanket worked in just two colors would be lovely, and I can say from having seen one in person that the stitch pattern is fantastic in Cotton Pure! You might also consider our Optic Blanket or Mosaic Blanket – both would be subtly gorgeous in tone-on-tone colors. Finally, for a modern geometric look, our Four Corners Blanket would be really interesting using Warm Cider and Yellow Curry for the accents, and a neutral such as Birch Bark or Pale Almond for the main color.
I hope one of those blankets piques your interest!
Best,
Julianna
Hi Julianna,
Thanks for the good suggestions – they all pique my interest!
I’ll give the tonal blanket a try. Am I right that I’ll need 8 skeins, 4 in each color, for the crib size blanket?
thanks,
Susan
Hi Susan,
Hooray, I’m so glad you liked the Tonal Blanket! You are correct that you will need four skeins of your main color, but since you will be using one contrast color instead of five, you will only need two or three skeins of your contrast color. When I added up the total yardage, it came out to 2.01 skeins, so I suspect two will be fine, especially if you leave off a few rows at the end, but I would still recommend getting three skeins just in case! As long as you don’t wind the last skein, you can return it for store credit if you don’t need it.
Happy knitting, and do let us know how it turns out!
Julianna
Ooh! Right you are! Thanks for saving me from that mistake!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Julianna, hello again! I just looked for the first time at the comments for the tonal blanket and see the recommendation there to use the same number of skeins of the Cotton Pure as the Alpaca. The Cotton Pure has more yards/skein so I’m surprised by that advice. Nonetheless, I wanted to double check with you to be sure 4 skeins of the main color and 3 of the contrasting color will do the trick.
Also, I would love your thoughts on which of these 2 colors might work better as the main color.
Many thanks!
Hi Susan,
The recommendations for the contrast color are based on using multiple contrast colors, so 3 skeins for a single contrast color is correct, but I do apologize, I only thought to check the yardage on the contrast color! You will need four or five skeins of your main color in Cotton Pure – again, it’s quite close and you will only need a bit of the fifth skein, if you need it at all, so I would still keep that skein unwound to return for store credit. Cotton Pure does have more yardage than Season Alpaca, but it’s not quite enough more to greatly affect the number of skeins needed for the blanket.
Since the contrast color is somewhat shadowed by the texture of the blanket anyway, I would use the darker color, Warm Cider, for the contrast color. The shadows may diminish the contrast between the two colors if you use the lighter color for the background, but will enhance the contrast if you keep the light color in the foreground!
Best,
Julianna
I love this pattern and I have some yarn in my stash that I want to use. It’s a thicker yarn and the label recommends a 7 needle. What size needle do you think I should use?
Thanks in advance
Hello Rebel,
Thank you for reaching out! If you are doubling your yarn I would go up to a US17 needle, or you could just hold you yarn single strand with the original pattern. I would knit up a couple of swatches to see which texture you prefer and go from there.
Happy knitting!
-Marilla
It looks like this explanation isn’t for knitters who prefer knitting in the continental style? Can you give an easy explanation relative to whether we are doing a knit or purl for the 2nd and 1st stitches? Thanks!
Hello Andrea,
Thank you for reaching out! I find that an easy guide for this is to remember that if your knitting a stitch you will be picking (continental) or wrapping (English) your yarn to the back of your fabric, while a purl will be to the front. For this particular pattern you will be knitting on the right side of the fabric and purling on the wrong side. This means that row 1 is knit and row 2 is purled.
I hope this helps and happy knitting!
-Marilla
If I wanted to knit this in a worsted weight do I need to double the yarn?
Hello Karen,
Thank you for reaching out! I would reccomend using a single strand of worsted weight yarn for this blanket if you are knitting it up with a US11.
Happy knitting!
-Marilla
The pattern is lovely – and so is the way you guys explain it! What I was wondering: in many of your (blanket) patterns, you use two strands of yarn. But doesn’t the project become pretty heavy by doing so? Or is the blanket weight still okay and comfortable to lie under?
Hi Aline,
Thanks for reaching out! Doubling the yarn does make the yarn twice as thick, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. In this case, Linen Quill is a fingering weight yarn, and holding it double makes it about equivalent to a worsted weight yarn, so although it is thicker and heavier than it would be held single, it isn’t anything unusual in the finished blanket. There are many patterns available for worsted weight blankets that would be quite similar! It also has the benefit of being able to use a larger needle so the knitting goes much faster.
I hope that clears things up, and happy knitting!
Julianna
Hi! I just love your site! This blanket is very intriguing and probably more than I should tackle. I’m interested in fresh pickle. Any ideas about using that color? Would you combine it with a different color for the second yarn? Thanks for the advise. Joy
Hello Joy,
Thank you for reaching out! I share your enthusiasm for this beautiful blanket and I think it will be great in Fresh Pickle. I think that adding another color will take away from the visibility of the pattern, so I would recommend sticking with the one color.
I hope this helps and happy knitting!
-Marilla
I knit a test swatch of this pattern (while I wait for my yarn to arrive) and I’m not happy with the untidy right edge… any suggestions on how to make it look more neat (like the left edge)?
Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for reaching out! If you look closely at our swatches, you will see that our right edge also looks a bit different from the left – it is unfortunately the nature of the beast with this stitch! I would try adding a narrow border of stockinette stitch to both sides of the swatch to encourage the selvage to curl slightly to the wrong side and see if it evens things out.
Best of luck and I hope that helps!
Julianna
I loved the Nature’s Pallet blanket I made with Linen Quill! I’d like to make this blanket and just saw that you are offering Linen Quill in worsted weight. Would the knit pattern work with the worsted weight and would it still need to be held double? How much yarn would be necessary? Would the needle size change? Thanks
Hi Mary,
Thanks for writing in, and what a wonderful idea! Yes, I think our new Linen Quill Worsted would be absolutely brilliant for this pattern! The pattern should work as written using the same needle size with a single strand of Linen Quill Worsted, but I would recommend knitting a gauge swatch to make sure, and you will need 8 skeins.
I hope that helps, and please do let us know how it turns out!
Julianna
Just for clarification…. I can make the plaited throw with a single strand of Linen Quill Worsted with the same needle size and 8 skeins. It will not affect the beautiful stitches or the look of the finished throw? Will it be a heavier/warmer blanket, or does the double strands of the fingering equal the same weight?
Thanks for the quick answer!
Hi Mary,
That is correct, although I do still think it would be a good idea to knit a gauge swatch first! The gauge of original Linen Quill held double is very similar to our new Linen Quill Worsted held single, so the finished blanket should be just about the same weight and thickness. If anything, I imagine the stitch definition will turn out a little crisper when knit with a single strand of yarn!
Best,
Julianna
Thanks, I’ve begun and it is going great with the Linen Quill Worsted. My gauge swatch indicated that I go down to a US 10 and the stitch definition looks great. I’ve even mastered the slow ballet of tinking the stitch with it’s slow untwisting and reordering of the stitch “legs”. Thankfully not having to do that often.
Is this yarn soft or scratchy? I want a yarn that’s really really soft for a throw!
Hi Amanda,
Thanks for reaching out! Linen Quill is a hearty and beautiful yarn to wear and work with! I wouldn’t consider it to be a scratchy yarn but it definitely isn’t as soft as a 100% merino yarn would be! If you are sensitive to scratchy yarns I would recommend substituting the Linen Quill for our Line Weight yarn!
All the best,
Gianna
If I made this in a throw size using the Worsted Linen Quill how many skeins would I need and what size needle? Thanks.
Hi Denise,
Thanks for reaching out! Since we hold Linen Quill Doubled for this pattern the gauge should be fairly similar to Linen Quill Worsted on its own! I would recommend 7 Skeins of the Linen Quill Worsted and I would also recommend sticking with the recommended needle size of the pattern (US 11) and working up a gauge swatch to see how it compares to the gauge of the pattern, you can adjust needle size from there if necessary!
I hope this helps!
All the best,
Gianna
No matter how loosely I cast on, when I go to knit the second stitch, the twisting makes it almost impossible to get the needle to go so I can move to the right needle. I start with yarn in back, go through back of second stitch, knit, do y/o and then to knit the 2nd, I have to twist the needles and can’t get the needle through! What am I doing wrong? The photos aren’t helping me. Thank you! Love this pattern and would really like to master it!
Hi Nancy,
Thanks for reaching out! The first row in a stitch pattern like this will always be the tightest but will get better the further into the pattern you get! But it sounds to me you are working the stitch pattern correctly. Insert the right needle through the back loop of the second stitch on the left needle. Wrap the yarn counterclockwise around the right needle and knit a stitch, but do not remove the second stitch from the left needle. Then, knit the first stitch on the needle as usual, and allow both stitches to fall off the left needle!
I would try to power through the first row and it should be much easier going into the 2nd row!
I hope this helps and please let me know if you have any more questions!
Warmly,
Gianna
Thank you for your response. Got it going! Unfortunately I find the yarn itchy and flat. Took it down to 10 1/2 needles and will do a cold water soak with fabric softener when finished. Fingers crossed. Beautiful stitch though!
Hello! This is a beautiful pattern and I have the hang of it after some practice rounds. However, I can’t fix problems. I can’t figure out how to unknit when I’ve run into an issue. I’ve tried and just screw it up even more. I had to undo several days worth of knitting and start over. Can you describe the appropriate way to unknit for both the right side/wrong side? Thank you!
Hi Amy,
Thanks for reaching out! Unfortunately, this stitch is a bit tricky to unknit since it is a more involved stitch pattern. The best way in general to unknit is to use the needle in your left hand, and insert it into the stitch below the current stitch that is on the right needle. Once the stitch below is secure on the left needle you can gently pull the upper stitch off of your right needle and pull the yarn through leaving the stitch that was below on the left needle. You can continue to do this as many times as necessary to remove any stitches that are incorrect.
I hope this helps and please let me know if you have any more questions!
Gianna
I saved this pattern a couple of years ago, and having made several blankets – with particular fondness for the Nature’s Pallet Blanket (I made it 50% larger with garter stitch – sleep under it all the time!) and Linen Quill yarn. I’m thinking of beginning this throw, and read with interest the comments about using Linen Quill Worsted instead. I made a swatch using a couple of different colors of double Linen Quill (dark green and light green) and then also a stripe using Heirloom white Linen Quill worsted. I really LOVE the thickness of the worsted weight and the definition of the stitches! I think I’ll proceed with making an oversized throw in this pattern. One thing concerns me, though – the bound off edge looks sloppy and uneven, even after blocking. Would it make sense to do a couple of rows of garter or something at both the start and the finish? I’d love to get your thoughts. Thank you – Lisa
P.S. I’m happy to send a picture of the three different colors/weights.
Hi Lisa,
Thanks for reaching out. I definitely think that a few rows of garter stitch will even out the cast-on and bind-off edges! It should work very well, but the one thing I would make sure to keep in mind is that your stitch gauge should remain the same across the two different stitches. I doubt it will vary significantly, but don’t be surprised if you need to change needles for the edges. I hope this helps!
All the best,
Lili
Hi, I love this pattern, but would like it in a softer material than Linen Quill. Can you please recommend any yarn with cashmere?
Thank you
Hi Elle,
Thanks for reaching out! In place of Linen Quill, I would suggest using Posy (75% superwash merino, 15% cashmere, and 10% nylon) or Line Weight (100% merino wool) both are incredibly soft and would work great for this throw! As always, I would suggest working a gauge swatch prior to beginning to ensure you are consistent with the pattern.
I hope this helps, happy knitting!
Gianna
I have been intrigued by this pattern for a long time. I am considering trying it in Lantern yarn. Do you think that would work? What needle size should I use? Any changes I should make? Or maybe Lantern is just not the right yarn for this pattern? I realize I will have to adjust the pattern to end up with the proper size throw.
Hi Rita,
Thanks for reaching out. You can absolutely use Lantern for this pattern, but you may need to adjust the number of stitches you cast on. To figure out your cast-on number, you will want to first knit a gauge swatch in pattern with your intended needles (size US 11 should work, but you can experiment). Once you know how many stitches you are getting per inch, you can multiply that number by the width that you would like and cast on the nearest even number. Then you can follow the pattern as written!
All the best,
Lili
I would love to try this pattern, however I don’t understand when you say “ let the stitches fall off the needle. It sounds to me like I’m not going to have any stitches left on my needles.
Hi Samantha!
Thank you for your question. When working woven or plaited stitches, you will be creating two stitches from two stitches, and then letting the old two stitches fall off your needle as you would normally after knitting or purling a stitch. This means that you will have the same number of stitches after each row! I suggest working a small swatch of this stitch pattern (on an even number of stitches) to get a feel for how this blanket takes shape on a smaller scale. That way, you can cast on for your blanket with confidence!
I hope this helps!
All the best,
Margaret
Hello!I’m generally a loose knitter, and usually have to go down a needle size or 2. I was thinking about a size 9. Is it super important to use such a large needle for this pattern, or would I be OK with a size 9?
Thanks so much!
Karen Thiemermann
Hi Karen,
Thanks for reaching out. The best way to determine what size needle you should use is by knitting a gauge swatch in pattern! You can try either the recommended needle, or a different size first, and once you measure the gauge you’re getting, you can try swatching with another size if necessary. I hope this helps get you started!
All the best,
Lili
Hello!
This pattern seems to be in American style knitting, and I tend to use English style – would it be possible to have this pattern translated to English style of knitting?
Thank you so much!
Hi Alexandria,
Thanks for reaching out! Our photo tutorial for this stitch pattern is shown in the English style of knitting (holding you yarn in the right hand). I’d suggest practicing the pattern by knitting a small swatch first so that you can get the hang of the stitches before beginning the full blanket!
All the best,
Lili
Is there a video tutorial somewhere showing how to do this stitch?
Hi Rita,
Thank you for writing in. We don’t currently have a tutorial on this stitch but if you let us know exactly which part you are having trouble with, we would be happy to further explain. I’ll keep an eye out for your reply!
warmly,
Gavriella
Do you think Sweetgrass would be as attractive a yarn to use for this throw as Linen Quill is? I love the look of the stitches in Linen Quill, and I was wondering about the stitch definition in Sweetgrass.
Thanks!
Susan
Hi Susan,
Sweetgrass has incredible stitch definition and would be perfect for this pattern!
All the best,
Lili
