Cottagecore Throw (Knit Pattern)

Note: This is a listing for the printable PDF file only, not for a printed copy or the finished garment.

Design

The Cottagecore Throw is worked back & forth from the bottom-up. Large diamonds are formed with slipped stitch cables on a garter stitch background. The simple design is elevated by 3 bands of long fringe and tassels adorn the four corners. Written in one size. The pattern is charted and includes written instructions for the charts. All stitch repeats appear in bold text.
Note: This design can be adapted by adding or omitting one of the 25-stitch repeats. Please feel free to play around with the pattern. You can also choose to eliminate the fringe and/or the tassels.
