Pink Lap Blanket


In shades of pink and grey with a splash of yellow, I have made a second twiddle blanket!


To help tone down the pink and blend the colours together I used this fine knitting cotton to create a flecked effect.


It went particularly well with the pale lemon yellow...


... and thickened the pink and yellow yarns to the same weight as the chunky cream and beige, which can be seen on the left of this picture.  The whole thing is finished off with buttons and knitted flowers, and is now ready for someone who needs a bit of extra warmth and comfort this winter.

Linking up to Sarah's blog Confessions of a Fabric Addict for Whoop Whoop Friday
and Amanda Jean's blog Crazy Mom Quilts for Finish It Up Friday.

  1. This is so neat! I had no idea you could combine yarn weights like that, not being a knitter. I love the variegated effect you're getting that way :)
