About
The Cherry Pie Throw is a whimsical gingham-and-cherry blanket, made of patchwork squares that you can work up 30 minutes at a time!
This pattern is also beginner-friendly, with step-by-step photos for every single part of the pattern.
I absolutely love this design. The plaid squares can be a little tricky, but I think it’s worth it — they’re the perfect calming complement to the bright red cherry tones!
Sizing
The standard blanket size is 41" (104 cm) wide and 49" (124 cm) long; this is the size you see in photos. There are instructions for customized sizing included.
Materials
Hook: 6.5mm or size needed to obtain gauge
Notions:
Tapestry needle
Scissors
Yarn: Chunky/size 5 weight
I used acrylics like Paintbox Yarns Simply Chunky to make this. I recommend using a similar acrylic or wool for your own project; you can find good substitutes on yarnsub.com.
Always make a swatch before beginning to make sure you meet gauge (also important so your pattern isn’t too big or too small) and are happy with the fabric created!
