The Celtic weave stitch creates a bold, textured fabric with a raised, and woven appearance. Interlocking texture that looks almost braided or woven. If you’ve never tried the Celtic weave stitch before, don’t worry. It might look complex, but once you get the hang of front and back post stitches, the pattern becomes rhythmic and meditative. This pattern was designed using a #3 lightweight yarn, which creates beautiful stitch definition while keeping the blanket soft and drapey.
