7 Easy to Knit Reversible Blanket Knitting Patterns
 

There’s something magical about a reversible stitch pattern! Using the perfect combination of knit and purl stitches can create a design that looks the same (or almost the same) on both sides of a knitting project. It's not surprising that every week I hear from knitters asking which of my blanket knitting patterns are reversible.  

REVERSIBLE BLANKET KNITTING PATTERNS:

This blog post features seven reversible blanket knitting patterns from my Fifty Four Ten Studio collection. Four of the knitting patterns are designed for worsted #4 weight yarn and three of the knitting patterns are for bulky #5 weight yarn.

If you are looking for a reversible pattern for super bulky #6 weight yarn… see the Game Time Blanket knitting pattern.

All of these blanket knitting patterns include instructions for six blanket sizes so you can select the size that fits your project needs. Select one of the smallest sizes for knitting baby blankets. The medium sizes are perfect for knitting a cuddly toddler blanket or a lap size blanket. And, the extra-large sizes are for knitting cozy throws or afghans.

1. TOUCH OF KINDNESS BLANKET

The Touch of Kindness blanket knitting pattern features reversible triangles. A 10-row repeat stitch pattern creates an all-over triangle design for a modern, geometric appearance. The photo below shows how the repeating triangles look on both sides of the blanket.

Touch of Kindness blanket knitting pattern features a repeating triangle stitch pattern. A solid color yarn in a light shade allows the stitch pattern to shine. I used Blue Sky Fibers ‘Sweater’ heavy worsted weight yarn in the ‘Sea Horse’ colorway. This yarn has fantastic stitch definition which makes the stitch pattern “pop”.

As of January 2024, this pattern has a rating of 4.9 out of 5 stars on Ravelry for clarity of instructions and 4.8 out of 5 stars for overall results. Ravelry knitters have shared more than 100 projects!

It is said that kindness is always in season. As I knit this little blue blanket, the repeating triangles in this design made me think of reaching our arms out to one another… with a touch of kindness.


2. THESE DAYS BLANKET

The stitch design for my These Days Blanket pattern reminds me of the boxes on my paper calendar where I write notes about each day. Some days bring life’s biggest challenges.

The repeating geometric squares in this stitch pattern remind me of the blank pages of my month-by-month paper calendar.  As I opened the page to a new year, I wrote down the events that we are looking forward to: a new baby in our family, a wedding, a dear friend visiting from out of town, etc. Whether looking ahead to next week or later in the year, may the days to come bring moments of joy, happiness and celebration.

It means so much to see how knitters use my patterns… and to hear their stories of how they demonstrate their love for their family through their handmade gifts. They make blankets to celebrate happy beginnings…to welcome babies to their family, to give to young adult children moving into their first apartment, to celebrate a wedding, and to celebrate a loved one’s birthday. Here’s to celebrating happy beginnings…and wishing for happy endings.
