Pattern Instructions

1. Background and Border

• Using US 13 / 9mm needles, cast on 150 stitches in deep blue yarn.
• Working in garter stitch (knit every row), work 4 inches for the border.
• Continue in stocking stitch (alternating knit and purl rows) for the desired length.

2. Superman Emblem Panel

• Center the emblem on the blanket. To create the emblem, you'll need to knit a separate panel and applique onto the main blanket.
• Use graph paper to map out a simplified Superman logo shape, approximately 20 stitches wide and 15 rows high.
• Using the chart, work with bright red yarn to create the outline of the emblem on a small swatch, then replicate on your panel. For details like the 'S' shape, use duplicate stitch or tapestry crochet to add details after the main panel is created.

3. Attaching the Emblem

• Once your emblem panel is complete, attach it to the main blanket with yarn and a yarn needle, centered on the blue background.
• Secure all edges neatly, and weave in all loose ends.

Finishing

• Block the blanket to measurements to ensure even edges.
• Optionally, add a simple border in deep blue yarn for a neat finish.

Enjoy your heroic cozy, perfect for gifting or a personal touch to your home!
