I'm still in love with Stylecraft Highland Heathers and the latest addition to the household just had to have her own blanket.
Daisy grew much faster than the original planned blanket
size, so it had to keep pace with her. When she arrived the first thing she
stole was a granny square and she is still a firm yarn fan and also loves to prepare fibre.
This blanket uses Stylecraft Highland Heathers DK in shades
Marmalade, moss, bracken, lichen, gorse, grist, brose and a small amount of terrier.
80 squares using simple crochet stitches of double crochet, treble crochet, half treble crochet and double treble crochet.
Tom wondering he doesn't have a blanket named after him.
Daisy is a true outdoor adventurer. She loves nothing better than wallowing in muddy puddles, zooming through fields or chasing butterflies. Also equally happy to lie down and just observe when we stop.
Simple linen stitch border
I tried to capture the colours of her puppy walks in the wild. The clear winter blue skies, grey and green mosses, yellow lichens, copper autumn leaves.
It really does fit into the landscape.
Pattern available here on Ko Fi or here on Ravelry in case you are tempted to make one yourself.
