We now offer handy kits of this pattern. All kits include enough yarn to make this beautiful blanket along with the pattern, a limited edition button badge and a fab project bag to keep it all safe. Happy knitting!
Winter Harvest Blanket pattern is designed by our very own Helena Timms, one of our Mill Folk. Click here if you’d like to buy just the pattern, without the yarn.
A colourful blanket of squares with a snowflake & flower lace pattern. Each square is knit in the round from the centre out, with short rows for the corners. The blanket is then seamed with either a garter block or a knitted on border. Available in 2 sizes in 4ply or Worsted yarn, but can be adapted to any yarn weight or blanket size. Recommended for intermediate knitters.
