Modwen Baby Blanket
"The Modwen Baby Blanket is a beautiful Tunisian crochet baby blanket item that is a pleasure to make and a pleasure to use. It features an interesting woven like pattern that is crocheted in columns using 3 colours and join as you go technique. This is a fun project for when you would like to work colourwork but not having to have more than 2 balls of yarn on the go at any one time! The chunky weight yarn makes it an amazing project that can be whipped up in a few evenings!"
