The Knitted Star Quilt Pattern is now available at Sewfinity!

Why We Like It

Designed by Brittany of Lo & Behold Stitchery, the Knitted Star Quilt is the perfect winter quilt. It's a Fair Isle style, with a repeat pattern of "knitted" stars. Wouldn't it look perfect on your bed in the winter months?

It's an intricate quilt that's has definite "wow" factor thanks to the many small strips. And it's way easier to put together than you'd think, since it's strip-pieced. Thanks for that, Brittany! Make the snowflakes a single color for a classic look, or go multi-colored for some really fun versions.

There are 3 sizes to choose from, and we love that the fabric requirements are simple for the 62" throw size quilt top. Our solid bundles and yardage work great!

• 2-color version: 3 yards of background + 2 yards for snowflakes
• multi-color version: 3 yards of background + 8 fat quarters for snowflakes
