Breakers, sailboats and beach houses!

With this blanket you can listen to the waves, take imaginary strolls along the coastline and watch for dophins and sea lions; all from the comfort of your couch.

The featured yarn is Berroco, Vintage (worsted).

Techniques

The houses are worked in strips and sewn together. The blue sea with the sailboats is worked in Intarsia. Techniques used are: plain garter stitch, intarsia and mattress stitch. The pattern gives you access to all my technique videos.

The pattern includes instructions for the pillow cover and a wearable top.
