This colorful afghan will brighten up a nursery or a child’s bedroom. The striking images incorporate all the elements of sci-fi space, stars rockets and vivid colors. Each patch is knitted separately and sewn together at the end, so it can be worked on easily without having to carry the whole blanket. The size can be adjusted by adding extra patches or taking them away. The techniques used include texture, cabling, intarsia and beading,
