hydrangea blanket

I started this late last night and am so in love with the colours….they remind me of hydrangeas, one of my favourite flowers!


My pattern is here and I’m using bendigo cotton (surprised???) and a size 5 crochet hook (or the skinny end of my yellow hamanaka)….just make it as big as you’d like…I’m going for pram size and the cotton will be perfect for summer!


Thank you everyone for your lovely comments…the colours are parchment, wild lavender, damask rose and honeydew!

  4. It is beautiful. Now not being a crocheter myself do you do a row in each color, or do you alternate colors for each row. I like how it all comes together like that.

  5. Pretty colours.
