I've finished!! YAY!

I've just finished weaving in the ends of my latest commissioned blanket.  The pattern is my Irish Rose Afghan pattern which is available for purchase here.  I made an extra 12 squares so that the blanket will cover a double sized bed.  The yarn used is Sirdar Calico which I hadn't used before but really like now.  It's turned out absolutely gorgeous and I don't want to post it away!

The weather here is rubbish so I haven't been able to take a decent photograph, but here's one anyway...


I'm already progressing on my next granny blanket and just thought up an idea for a summery scarf.  Will keep you posted!
Hope you all have a lovely weekend,

  1. It's beautiful! In about 1985 I made an afghan for a king sized bed -- peach flowers, green leaves and an offwhite background -- I don't even remember how many squares I made or how much I got paid for it. I couldn't even imagine doing it now. Have a great weekend. Tammy

  2. This is gorgeous! I love the colours. They have a fresh, spring look. Lovely for a summer throw.
