Plus clear stitch abbreviations and notes so you can stitch with confidence. The pattern includes 5 sizes (baby through large throw), so you can make exactly the blanket you need without guesswork.
For the softest drape with crisp stitch definition, the throw is written for #3 lightweight yarn. A great option is Lion Brand Mandala Bonus Bundle (each cake ~1,181 yards), and the pattern provides yardage by size to simplify planning. Choose soft solids for a classic look or let long-color-change cakes do the striping for you.
Either way, the waffle texture really shines.
From first chain to final border, the Waffle Whispers Throw is all about comfort. Both in the making and the using. Pick your favorite palette, and enjoy a calm, easy-to-learn waffle stitch that you’ll want to revisit again and again. It’s a beautiful, gift-worthy project you can personalize for any occasion.
