You'll receive an info page with all of the details and materials needed for the throw blanket. The clues for the MKAL will be released month by month.
You'll also receive 10 accessory patterns throughout the year. These "Kristen's Version" patterns are fully updated from her days as the in house designer for Jimmy Beans Wool.
-
Kristen designed the throw blanket with our Fremont Aran base which contains 100% Superwash Bluefaced Leicester (BFL). She used 2 skeins of the main colourway and 10 skeins of the Eras colourways for the design. This comes out to just shy of 2,200 yards.

No. While we'd absolutely love you to, any aran weight yarn will do the trick.
-
Unfortunately no. The pattern is designed and written for aran weight. Any change in yarn weight would need additional time for the pattern to be rewritten and reworked.
-
The throw blanket pattern will be an intermediate level pattern. All instructions will be written and charted. The Vault patterns are mostly advanced beginner to intermediate.
