This is a great project to pick up and put down over a period of time. To make it easier the squares are knitted in strips rather than lots of squares to sew up. You knit 8 strips each with 11 ‘squares’. Much less sewing and ends to sew in! Finished size approximately 140cm x 132cm
The yarn is a superb quality 100% merino and is so lovely to work with, it's worth every penny.
The main picture shows the 7 colours I've used for this new version. I love the mix of neutrals, pink and mustard I hope you like it too.
(Please note the blanket shown with RED is NO LONGER available).
The pattern comes with full instructions on how to knit the 8 different stitches row by row
