Dreaming of Persia? I have been ever since I began knitting this blanket! Hexagon motifs are grafted together to create a complex web of colorwork, all in eastern inspired motifs.
This is not a quick project, but it is very enjoyable. Each hexagon is knit in the round, from the center out, the colorwork is always on the right side, and the border also is knit onto each hexagon as you go. As you finish hexagons, you can begin to graft them together. Not ready to commit to this huge of a project, but you love it too much to move on? Try picking your favorite two hexagons and stitch them together into a throw cushion, or choose just one hexagon and work it up in worsted weight for a rug (it will be about 2 feet across in worsted).
