Another crochet blanket finished;
I am calling it "Spring Blanket" because of the colours and because I made it in the spring 😁
I made this one up as I went along; initially I was just playing with small 3in squares (which in the end became the central panel), and it went on from there.
The main yarn I used here was Stylecraft Life & Stylecraft Batik DK, which both contain some element of wool; the rest came from leftovers
from previous projects.
I haven't blocked it out, because it is just too large to do that and I actually like the more bulky feel of it, but I will give it a wash shortly to even out the stitches.
The blanket felt warm and comfortable on my lap when I was finishing the borders, and I can see myself using it a lot.
But what happened to spring? It is a cold and wet day in my part of the world today;
a good time to go and do some crafting!
