Sorry if I've been a bit quiet, lots going on and I took a week off work last week for the weather and to just be at home knitting, gardening, crochet. Perfect week really.
So here is a little gorgeous blanket I managed to finish despite the heat. More photos over on my Instagram account
I made this out of the lovely Debbie Bliss Rialto DK Heathers range a 100% merino woll 105m/114 yards per 50g ball with 4mm crochet hook. I chose colour 92 Denim (now discontinued) for the main blanket then edged it with one row of Sky, one row of cream and the last 2 rows in the Heathers range colour 23090 Honey for the picot edging.
Its so springy and a lovely size for a growing baby, more second size than new born I think. This one has been made for an old friend of mine who's first baby is due in September. I'm guessing its a boy.
Its machine washable at 30 deg and is classed as a DK weight yarn that has lots of spring and fantastic stitch definition. Its simple but luxurious and soft for a baby, perfect.
I'm writing up the pattern to release next week - watch this space for the link.
