At least once a year I try and design a throw blanket that uses a Super Bulky yarn and works up quickly. There is just something so satisfying about crocheting a big comfy blanket in a week! The Windermere Throw crochet pattern is the perfect pattern for that!

I used Lion Brand Re-Spun Thick & Quick in the colors Pumice and Wisteria. You only need 3 skeins of each color to make this big blanket! This yarn is part of the sustainable stitching line at Lion Brand. Its 100% recycled polyester and is made from recycled plastic, keeping bottles and other waste out of our oceans and landfills! It’s super soft and easy to work with and you are doing good for our planet when you use it!

There are so many different cute color combos you can use in this pattern. I think a black and white, or a cream and blue would look so pretty! Be sure to check out the different colors of the Re-Spun yarn if you are purchasing the kit! If you grab the kit, you get a free digital copy of the printable pattern! Lion Brand frequently has sales so you can get the kit at a discounted price! Be sure you are following me on Instagram and subscribe to my email list where I tell you about these sales!

The construction of this blanket is slightly different than your usual row by row blanket. I know big projects can sometimes be mundane so I wanted to keep it interesting! You will be making 2 end panels and 1 main panel! This breaks the project up into easily attainable goals. Once you make all 3 panels, you join them together with a row of Sc stitches! It’s super easy! I also used mostly treble crochet stitches in this project so your throw will grow quickly! Don’t be scared of the color work. Its very minimal and easy to do.
