I finished it a couple of weeks ago and its been on my bed ever since.It's soft and drapey and heavy and so bright. I started making it about a year ago and it's popped up again and again until now, here it is done
I used Attic24's neat ripple pattern which was pretty straightforward once I got the hang of it.The yarn is Sirdar Snuggly Baby Bamboo and I think I used 30 balls.
I struggled to take a complete picture of the whole blanket, which is why I'd taken it outside, but I think you get the idea
I love it so much!
It looks colourful and cozy - the right thing for the cold season ahead!
ReplyDeletewonderful blanket! It is so happy and colorful :-)
ReplyDeleteHow special that this has been a long and gradual process of creation, and all the more treasured for every stitch having been made by you. It's already looking like a beautiful heirloom.
