| I bought the yarn from Wool Warehouse - their service is always excellent and their yarns are very reasonably priced too. | |||
| I used approximately 100g of each colour (2 x 50g balls) but that's not an exact science as I modified the pattern a little, and used these aran weight yarns instead of a double knit as suggested in the pattern. | |||
| The pattern can be found on the lovely Cherry Heart blog here. | |||

Happy crocheting . . .

I do love all the colours you have used here, even though its not a colour palette that I would use myself....so kind of you to share for others! Though I may have a sneak peek at the pattern, keep it in store for a rainy day :) x
ReplyDeleteWell I just got caught up ...scrolling back to your catching up post, and enjoying viewing your projects. I admire your work, Gillie, and am happy that your quilt was featured, that you have been busy with walks and tea and creativity, and I especially admire your spice of highland life blanket! Thanks for posting :) xx
