Made in lots of happy colors with a simple stitch pattern and you've got a
I wrote this pattern using Scheepjes Colour Crafter*, using 23 skeins of it--in 23 vibrant colors--and managed to design THREE heavenly and bursting-with-color blankets!
Remember this one...
And then there's this one...
I think this yarn is so much fun! And bonus...it's VERY affordable! I found mine at Deramores.com*, but you can find it other places, too--all with shipping around the world.
And each of the patterns outlines exactly which of the colors I used (they are similar, but not all exactly the same).
I've got several other little patterns on my hook right now. With Fall approaching and back-to-school my mind is whirling with some smaller yet cozy projects. What about you?

Oh I love this. I would love to be able to make this into a baby blanket for a friends. I hope you have a pattern soon.
ReplyDeleteCathie, the pattern is available in all three of my shops--linked above. It is a fun and easy blanket to make as a gift, too, I think.
DeleteBeautiful pattern in gorgeous colours! X
ReplyDeleteThanks, Maggie! I love the colors of this yarn, as well!
DeleteI, too, love Stylecraft yarn! I first used it when I made a cushion cover from Lucy's Attic24 blog. Even living in America and having it shipped here, I find it still the best for the cost! The colours never let me down. I really like all of your blankets, the Basket of Rainbows the best. I will need to seriously start it soon!
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a lovely weekend.
Hugs,
Deb
