Swatch Quilt Ideas

Swatch Quilt Ideas

I’m working through Barbara Walker’s first Treasury of Knitting Patterns and making some swatches. I think I’ll make them large, with a bulky yarn and maybe turn the resulting swatches into a blanket someday.

Today it’s the Inverness Diamonds pattern using Berroco Vintage Chunky left-overs from my large cardigan.

Nice texture. Lovely pattern. Enjoy!
