Icarus Knit Blanket Kit

Icarus Blanket designed by Tammy Canavan-Soldaat is a beginner friendly DIY gradient pattern which uses double stranded knitting and simple stitches to create texture and colour play. It’s the perfect size for over your lap or around your shoulders when enjoying a cool autumn day in your garden or curled up on the sofa in front of the TV.

This pattern is extremely flexible, easy to resize and opens up an entire world of possibility for gradients. The colour for the original colourway was inspired by a painting of Icarus given to us by my mother-in-law, which I really love.
