Helen's Scrumptious Picnic Blanket
Picnics have never been such fun!
We had to give our new Lleyni Mini Wool Pots a really good test drive before we told you about them. So Helen has been hard at work (oh, such a chore – not!!) knitting a picnic rug using a variety of shades of blue from our Indigo range. Each square is made from one Wool Pot – and she’d still be knitting now if we hadn’t yelled at her to STOP or we’d have run out of wool!!
So, the 35 squares she managed to complete are in a combination of good old garter stitch and a slightly funky way of making a square which looks like you’ve knitted in two directions at once but is in fact stunningly easy.
As the picnic and festival season is fast approaching this strikes us as a very cosy addition to your summer goodies collection. And if it gets chilly you can always keep yourself warm in it!
While some may choose to be a bit subtle like we were with the colours you could equally well use 35 different colours if you wanted something jazzy and vibrant. And of course you could keep adding it to it every time you found a new shade you fancied.
Very easy knit
Yarn 35 x Lleyni Mini Wool Pots £126 incl. needles & pattern
