Welcome to the Signature Squares Blanket knit along hosted by our friends at Rowan! This blanket is a celebration of color and pattern that brings together some of designer Kaffe Fassett's most iconic designs!

Over eight weeks you’ll discover the joy and freedom of Intarsia knitting. Kaffe's approach is liberating as he invites you to play with color and pattern! Supported by helpful step-by-step video tutorials, the Signature Squares Blanket KAL is a striking collector's piece you won't want to miss.

So join in and sign-up at knitrowan.com to receive your weekly patterns. The knit along begins October 22!
