We all need a little luxury in our lives, so when selecting yarns for our crochet projects, it pays to choose the best we can, especially when we invest so much of our time in our creations. For this pretty, colourful lap blanket I’ve chosen a high-quality super soft, pure alpaca yarn that is surprisingly budget friendly. It is a joy to crochet with and will make the Daisy Dot Lap Blanket an heirloom piece that you will treasure for years to come.

The pattern is written using standard UK terms and includes clear charts for the motifs showing where they are joined as-you-go.
