I love Stylecraft special, I do only use 4ply, the yarn works well and it great in the laundry. I made a scrappy blanket last year which I use on my floor when the babies are here. Your hard work has created at lovely addition to your home.

(However, I do appreciate that not everyone loves mixed colours like I do). I am sure the charity blankets will be really popular. Have you heard about Twiddle Muffs for people with dementia? Perhaps your local hospital/care home would like some of those too? <br />Best wishes<br />EllieEllie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.com
