The Seaside Blanket
The Seaside Blanket
"The Seaside Blanket is a must to celebrate any new arrival or to size up and treat yourself to. The twisting of squares creates a beautiful centre panel texture like the waves of the sea and and the pops of colour around the border are just perfect to remind you of deck chairs, sand and ice cream The magic of this blanket is the texture you get from all the little square motifs. They are all exactly the same but then to join them you just simply rotate each one as you join so that the pattern detail is facing a different way each time."

This is a clever idea and a great Carry Along craft. The center squares are all worked exactly the same, but when you assemble them, each square is rotated so the stitch pattern is not going in the same direction. I like that deep border, too. Our newest granddaughter will be delivered tomorrow so I have baby on the brain right now. I keep imagining this worked in pink!
