Although it’s still hot outside, cooler days will be here before we know it. That makes now a great time to start working on thicker, warmer blankets. With that in mind, here are some inspiring moss stitch blanket ideas to get you started.
Moss stitch creates a beautifully solid texture with an appearance that can resemble knitted fabric. Best of all, this relatively simple technique can produce impressive results without requiring complicated combinations of different stitches. Instead, you can focus on choosing colors and creating eye-catching patterns while the moss stitch provides plenty of texture on its own.
The finished blankets are wonderfully dense, cozy, and luxurious—perfect for wrapping yourself up on a chilly evening.
Hydroponic Moss Stitch
This project uses the Madelinetosh yarn in Hydroponic colorway and an Antler colorway border. Should you add the border on just 2 edges, you’ll give it a super modern look.
The project was based on Moss Stitch in a Square Blanket; full article about this pattern is on www.repeatcrafterme.com blog:

Rainbow Moss Stitch
The Rainbow Moss Stitch Blanket by Daisy Farm Crafts is a cheerful take on the classic moss stitch, combining crisp white rows with a beautiful progression of rainbow colors. The simple stitch pattern gives the blanket a neat, woven-like texture, while frequent color changes create delicate stripes without making the design feel too busy. Finished with a coordinating moss stitch border, it has a polished and wonderfully cozy look.

Mossy Miter Blanket
Here is another moss stitch project idea. As mentioned, it’s based on the Moss Stitch worked into a in a Square Blanket pattern by Sarah Zimmerman.
