Designed by Claudia Q

I designed this blanket in honour of my daughter, my little deer, as I lovingly refer to her. It is simple enough to fit into any interior but also whimsical enough to capture the attention of your tiny one.

The blanket is worked flat. It is made up of 3 main panels: two border panels worked in stranded colourwork and a centre panel worked in a broken double seed stitch pattern.
