Hand-knitted Treasure
It is definitely blanket season. Our house is full of them: big ones, small ones, old ones, new ones, woollen ones, furry ones, store-bought ones and hand-knitted ones. We've got them on the bed and on the sofa and a big pile in the spare room for guests.

I love your blanket! The colours are great and so cheerful.
i've always wanted to knit a blanket to pass down in the family, it's lovely to see you've already got this & has inspired me to get my bum into gear & start making one :)

Such a happy blanket. I'm sure it has loads of beautiful memories =)

great blanket! how is it constructed? surely not individual squares sewn together?
Oh my! This blanket is awesome!
Thanks for the sweet comments everyone - my mum is thrilled you like the blanket! :)
Fiona, yes it's lots of tiny squares all sewn together. So much work!
