Knitted Modern Blanket Pattern Ideas

Hi guys! It’s time to issue a warm welcome to winter! And by warm, we mean the opportunity to create warmth with these 12 Knitted Modern Blanket Patterns Ideas.

After all, winter means it’s the perfect excuse to curl up with a nice homemade blanket and watch yet another episode of whatever show you are binge-watching right now.

Plus, these are all great options for those knitters that just love to make, gift, and use blankets!

All of these are modern and designed for those that really enjoy unique blankets and throw knitting patterns.

Regardless of what color you had in mind, there will be a special blanket pattern here.

Variegated wool often pairs nicely with the tassel-decorated blanket here.

Or, you can put a twist on that and create the pom-pom-decorated one that has a color-coordinated edging on it. 

There is also a reversible blanket pattern here that is great for those with sensitive skin, or even for babies as a heartfelt gift for a happy couple expecting a new one.

These are also sized to work as cuddle blankets when they get older.

Another hit is the idea of the fun and playful square blanket that has different types of squares and different patterns of squares and different colors of squares all in one (ironically) rectangle blanket!

This is a great way to add some pops of color for that person who loves them, too, especially if you choose their favorites!

Love pattern? There is a beautiful chevron panel one here, too, that is going to be really modern and very much appreciated.

If you want to have a “labor of love” appeal to the blanket, this is a great way to do it.

Perfect a special birthday present or anniversary present, or “just because”.

For simple and sweet, there is also a chunky style blanket that can be in on a solid color and let the pattern do the talking.

With lots of raised texture and personality, it’s perfect for those that just want to keep it simple and sweet — but still stylish!
