Here is a lovely blanket using filets (by my reckoning that’s a filet as in a filet joint in a corner, rather than a fish filet, but you decide) of material filling a 90 degree angle between two others with strands rotated 45 degrees in pairs. It’s an attractive pattern that makes a larger 4-field checkerboard and a very interesting visual effect, especially when combined with a color gradient, as in the authors own example. A great project, and a great accessory for your home. A link to the free pattern is below photos.
