PRODUCT INFORMATION
PRODUCT INFORMATION

This afghan is composed of mitered squares. Each half of the mitered square is worked using intarsia. The units are picked up one from another and the design can be worked concentrically, or vertically. Like magic, the squares are added one to another, and the entire blanket is knitted without ever breaking the yarn. Each mitered square is outlined with a lovely braided-look edge, creating a crisp visual line between each and every square. If you’re ready to take your mitered square knitting to the next level, then this blanket is for you!

Originally designed by Virginia Woods Bellamy, and included in her book Number Knitting: The New All-Way Stretch Method (1952), the Whirlpool Design Stole pairs larger needles with a finer yarn to create a wrap with an airy drape. Following the numbered sequence of mitered shapes adds to the whirlpool effect with the last stitch taken in the exact center of the whirl.

Number Knitting is interesting, and engaging, for a knitter of any skill level with projects, and garments, often settling into their shape at the completion of the final “numbered shape.” The Whirlpool Design Stole is a mirrored design with both left and right halves knitted in the exact same manner using Left- , Right- , and Divided Triangles. The final unit also connects the two halves of the stole together. All the units are mitered and share sides with each other.
