Tilting Blocks was one of my first published patterns, and it was created to wrap our fifth child, fourth son, in my love. It is still one of my most popular patterns, actually. Don't tell him I told you, but he still uses this blanket in his bed. One of these days, I will knit one up again and take better photography, but it is still a treasured item for him, even though he turned 14 last week. Until now, I didn't realize that the two patterns I was highlighting this month were actually designed and made for our two children with birthdays this month. Anyway, if you are interested in buying this pattern, please take a look at PayHip, LoveCrafts, or Ravelry. On both PayHip and Ravelry, I am offering a coupon code, happybirthdayjerome, for 20% off this pattern through the end of the day next Friday, September 4, 2020. Unfortunately, I cannot create promotions on LoveCrafts, but if you e-mail me your invoice from between now and then, I will be happy to refund you the 20%, or if you would prefer that I send you an invoice for this pattern (or any other), I can do so and e-mail you the pattern directly.

If you would like to receive updates and early notice of new patterns, beta knitting opportunities, and great discounts on patterns like this one (plus pictures of new yarns, new tools, fun places, neat hints, book ideas, recipes and more) each month, please subscribe to 1,001 Knits. My best, and sometimes my only, discounts go to my subscribers.
