Blanket Ta-dahhhhh!


After 13 months of hooky I have finished the blanket!!  It all started when I was given a big bag of wool from mum-in-law when she moved house.  There was wool in there that the kids had vests from that she had knitted.  It was going to be all hearts but they took ages to make and I had to really concentrate while watching TV!!  So then the stripes started, some wool from my stash and some op shopped wool.  All is 8 ply wool.


Lillie is very happy with the new blanky as her baby blanket is getting rather small to snuggle on the couch with.




And it can even be used as a wedding dress and veil!!



So now I can crack on and finish little brothers one.

And I'm going to enter it in the Deramores blog competition to win a heap of yarn.
