The Succulents Yarn Subscription is a set of 12 new surprise colour ways from Hue Loco Yarn. From it, I used the 12 colours to make up the main squares for the Succulents Granny Square CAL blanket design. Each month a surprise skein of yarn will show up in the mail and from it you make the squares for the blanket. At the end of the year, the blanket is joined up. The blanket construction is made up of two squares: sunburst granny squares and solid granny squares in an alternating pattern. Each month you make 10 squares according to the schedule listed in the pattern below…

a kind of patchwork effect. It’s subtle, and focuses more on the art of beautiful hand dyed yarns rather than a quilted effect. However, it still shines through just a bit. —And you know just how much I love a quilt inspired blanket :)

It’s bright, fun and perfectly summer. What is it about Pineapples!? I just love them…to eat and to look at! I wanted a simple, yet colourful version of a pineapple to curl up in. Made with simple, 3-round starburst squares, cozy yarns and seamed together later. This granny square blanket is good enough to eat ;)

Inspired by quilts and the Scandinavian Nordic Star motif which is so popular in knitting and yoke sweaters. I wanted one for myself so put the crochet spin on it!
