Colourful Cot Blanket

Good Morning All

Are you all nearly ready for Christmas.  Our Mums arrive on Friday for about 12 days and they are coming to Benidorm with us.  I thought it would be good for my Mum to come here to take some of the pressure off my sisters in the UK, so they can relax and do their own thing this year.
 *********


I started doing the centre of this blanket when I was in the UK and I had some squares knitted and crocheted here so I put it all together last week.  The centre is the lovely basket weave stitch which I love doing.  I made this one HERE first and have now given it to Megan for the new baby due in March.
I made one like this for Noah HERE  and one for Mum for her 90th Birthday HERE which my sisters and my neice cntributed the squares to.

I shall give this to Mum to pack in her suitcase when she returns home to save me a bit of space when I go over in April.

    Hi Wendy
    Wonderful crochet/knitting as usual. New baby will be snug as a bug wrapped in this.
    Enjoy your time with Mums.
