this in-progress blanket uses a twisted stockinette stitch as the field pattern. instead of a normal knit, each knit stitch is worked through the back loop. the next row is done in a traditional purl. every 10 rows, an accent color is incorporated by weaving it in and out of each stitch as it’s worked.
