I received a HUGE suprise when I dropped into Tinniegirls house last week.
This beautiful pure wool granny blanket (which I wasn't expecting to be finished until next winter), was all packed up, ready and waiting to come back to my house!It seems that she'd kept it a big secret that she was still toiling away in the background, sewing in all of those yarn ends. I can only imagine the number of hours that went into creating it.
The colours are magnificent. Just what my loungeroom needs to add some much personality and warmth.
I just couldn't stop taking photos of it hanging in the sunshine...Thankyou so much Cathy, I love love love my new granny!

Oh so gorgeous - I am jealous! I am going to teach myself how to crochet now. I remember having a blanket like that as a child - I love that they are coming back, or maybe they never really went away. I will prob be finished in time for next winter! You can always use it as a fab picnic blanket in the summer anyway :)
