Hi Mauri,

I can’t tell you that for sure, but it will be approximately 300 rows for a 42″ long blanket.

Take a picture when you are done! I’d love to see it.

Hi Lynn! 🥰

Two questions:

1. Is it a washable wool? Definitely want to be able to toss the blanket is washing machine or at least hand wash it
2. What’s your gauge with this yarn? There’s no reason you couldn’t use it for hte pattern, just need to make sure you have enough and alter the cast on.

Hi Lynn!

I was just wondering if this lovely blanket would work in a sport wool? I have lovely Berroco wool I would like to use up.

Thanks!
Lynn( my name too!)

Hi Judy, the SSK is a decrease and will keep the 181 stitches. This video may be helpful. https://youtu.be/Wx9taocCK7w

I love this pattern, but I’m having a terrible time with the instructions. On row 8 you say repeat from * and I end up getting almost 200 stitches on my needles . Shouldn’t there be a decrease somewhere in order to keep the same 181 stitches throughout???

Good Morning Mary Lynn,

It seems to me you are missing the SSK (slip slip knit) decreases in those rows. Every row should have the same number of stitches.

Let me know if this helps. If not, pop back in and I’m glad to help.

Hugs, Lynn

I just started knitting the Cloverlaf baby blanket for a church ministry and if I follow the directions for rows 8 an 14, it will be triangular with MANY more stitches in the later rows. What am I missing in the directions? How do I accommodate for the stitches added by the yarn overs in those rows? I’d like to knit several of these in variety of colors

In reply to Alexandra Davis. Hi Alex, I'd use the needle size recommended by the yarn manufacturer. If you knit the pattern as written, it will be a little smaller...which may not be a bad thing for your needs. If you have enough yarn and want to make it bigger, we can calculate how many you should cast on. Here's a post that will help with that. But if you still need guidance, I am very happy to help. Hugs, Lynn

In reply to lynn. Hey, I also got DK weight yarn instead of worsted...and I got it months ago so I'm pretty much going to have to just use what I have. My question is, in order to make a similar looking blanket, what size needle should I use, as I bought the needle size recommended for the pattern but I'm concerned it won't work up the same since the yarn is smaller. Thank you for your time! Alex
