Min mammas faster virkade grytlappar. Jag ljuger inte om jag säger att det var i hundratals. Alla vi släktingar har ett gäng var av dessa i de mest fantastiska färger. Och vad det verkar exakt samma maskantal... Vilket är finemang när man som jag beslutar sig att virka samman en 30 stycken till en picknickfilt. Färggladaste projekted på länge!
Så att ingen ska tro att jag virkat så det ryker på nyåret så kan jag berätta att filten var färdig innan jul.
Picnic blanket
My mum's aunt liked to crochet potholders. I am not lying if I say she made hundreds. All of us relatives have a healthy pile each in the most amazing colours. And what it seems like, exactly the same stitch count... Which is brilliant if you like me decide to join up about 30 potholders and make a picnic blanket. Most colourful project in a long time!
And just for the record, I have not been crocheting like an obsessed in the new year. This blanket was finished before Christmas.
I am in love with your colourful picnic blanket and I am in love with your cat! A fabulous idea to corral all those pretty potholders together and fashion it into a blanket. Every time you use it you will have lovely memories of your mother.
SvaraRaderaThis is gorgeous, Anna, and I hope to see a lot of fun picnics in your future. Which stitch did you use to join the squares? It is very nice.

Thank you! I used clusters of three double crochet (US) like granny squares. Hope that helps!x
RaderaSo cheerful!! I love this - what a great idea to make them into a picnic blanket. They can really be enjoyed and used now. Lovely!
