I’ve just finished weaving in the ends of my latest commissioned blanket. The pattern is my Irish Rose Afghan pattern. 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!
I wanna make it!

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