COMMUNITY GARDEN BLANKET

This was another collaborative CAL with 18 other fabulous designers! So it was a community effort!

I LOVE organizing the collaborative CAL’s – so many of these designers are just awesome at what they do and I am so proud to call them my friends.

Here in the UK we have something called allotments. They are very similar to the community gardens in the US, but people have their own portion of the land that they rent to grow fruits, & vegetables.

The sense of community in these places is fantastic. People come together to get their hands dirty, enjoy nature and just ‘be’.

As this is a Corner to Corner blanket I cannot give you specifics on how much yarn you will use.

MATERIALS:

This is because everyone’s tension is slightly different but as long as you are consistent your blanket will look great!

MATERIALS:

Also, some people prefer to do HDC rather than DC (like I did). HDC squares will be between 12-15″ depending on tension.

MATERIALS:

As a rough guide I used 12 skeins of Paintbox Simply Aran in champagne / off white for the main colour.  Blog post lists the other colours I used.
