I was looking for a good pattern for a dog blanket a friend requested I make and happened upon this one thinking it’d be perfect for the plaid look I was wanting. However, after ready the comments about the inconsistencies in the pattern, I did see someone linked a different basket weave pattern that gave me some insight to rewrite this one! Here’s the link: https://anoregoncottage.com/quick-basketweave-knitted-throw-pattern/ I didn’t like the size of the blocks on the other pattern, they were too big, and I didn’t like the seed stitch pattern edging. <br />I haven’t tested this pattern yet, but it should work, if only needing a few tweaks. <br />CO 120 sts.<br /><br />Knit 14 rows in garter (knit all rows), ending with a WS row.<br /><br />Row 1: Knit across.<br />Row 2: *k8, p8. Repeat from * to last 8 st, k8.<br />Row 3: * knit all knit st and purl all purl st<br /><br />Repeat row 3 for 12 rows total.<br /><br />** Reverse the basket weave/Row 15: k8 * purl all knit st and knit all purl st to last 8 st, k8. <br /><br />Row 16-27: knit in the newly established pattern; k8 * knit all knit st and purl all purl st to last 8 st, k8<br /><br />** reverse and repeat until desired length. End with 14 knit (garter) rows, binding off on the WS. <br /><br />tip: each section before a reverse row will be the end of a row of basket weave “blocks”. if youd like to adjust this pattern by the size of each block, youll have to adjust either the amount of stitches you cast on (for a width increase/decrease) or repeat knitting all knit stitches and purling all purl stitches for more (or less) than 12 rows (for a length increase/decrease)<br />Truly hopes this helps (and that it works when I try it out lol)! wowhayyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12228450400916127565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3256640757472713928.post-81942175942135752902020-02-24T15:11:02.243-08:002020-02-24T15:11:02.243-08:00Please respond.

Can I see the post somewhere whoever finished it??<br />Please let me know..<br /><br />I think this is the corrected pattern (after the border):<br /><br /><br />Section 1: <br />Row 1: K8, *K8, P8.

Repeat from * to last 8 stitches, K8.<br />Row 2: K8, *K8, P8. Repeat from * to last 8 stitches, K8.<br />Repeat rows 1 & 2 for 12 rows.<br /><br />Keep alternating section 1 & 2 until desired length, ending with section 1 <br />(so it matches beginning). Work 14 rows garter stitch. Bind off. Weave in ends.

I'm about 25 rows in and can't decide if I want to frog it or not.

If you follow this pattern, you will get an interesting textured effect but it's not what the photo shows and it's not basketweave stitch. For basketweave, you need to knit the knits and purl the purls for x rows, not knit every other row. After x rows, you move your knit/purl sections over one section so instead of ribbing you get a basketweave effect. <br /><br />Please update this pattern and eliminate row 1 for each section. This is a great beginner project, but could lead to a lot of disappointment for a beginning knitter who is likely to copy the pattern's mistakes.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3256640757472713928.post-11424276907859447332016-07-12T08:44:35.595-07:002016-07-12T08:44:35.595-07:00http://anoregoncottage.com/quick-basketweave-knitt...http://anoregoncottage.com/quick-basketweave-knitted-throw-pattern/<br />Wardfamily2https://www.blogger.com/profile/18326318190098887302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3256640757472713928.post-84886030854340537012016-01-30T16:43:13.569-08:002016-01-30T16:43:13.569-08:00Does anyone know if there's a PDF of this tota...Does anyone know if there's a PDF of this totally gorgeous babyblanket?Georgiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10608260396520992297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3256640757472713928.post-76091882797941881442016-01-30T16:42:50.616-08:002016-01-30T16:42:50.616-08:00Does anyone know if there's a PDF of this tota...Does anyone know if there's a PDF of this totally gorgeous babyblanket?Georgiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10608260396520992297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3256640757472713928.post-9534298757289945232014-11-05T18:20:21.591-08:002014-11-05T18:20:21.591-08:00Could you please tell me your method used in block...Could you please tell me your method used in blocking this beautiful blanket?<br />ThanksJanice Boucherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11277747016697589356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3256640757472713928.post-35268065977832804282013-03-20T21:09:12.305-07:002013-03-20T21:09:12.305-07:00Im working on a basket weave blanket and I saw you...Im working on a basket weave blanket and I saw yours in the "images" in a google search. It is sooo beautiful and I want to know, does putting the knit row in between the "switch" make it lay so purty like that? If I dont, will it look sloppy? I think I will experiment. I would love to hear your opinion.
