Bloques, a beautiful color-blocked afghan pattern from Manos del Uruguay, is a deceptively simple pattern with a lot of “Wow!” factor. Using one main color and 4 contrasting colors of gloriously soft Manos Maxima, the blanket is constructed by knitting the blocks in two strips then connecting them by picking up stitches to make the vertical panels. There is only one seam in this whole blanket since most of the stitches are picked up!
