Have been doing a grand sort out to put all my yarn related stuff into a new Ikea unit. This project was born out of my finding 14 balls of this gorgeous yarn in my stash. Unfortunately it has been discontinued and also the tension is somewhere between 4ply and DK. So I decided to put it all together along with some remnants of sock yarn and to use the very effective Granny stripe pattern from my favourite blogger/designer, Lucy at Attic 24.
Love the way all the colours seem to blend in without too many clashes. This is an excellent project for car journeys in cold weather and come to think of it the blanket may well end up in the car.

Completed and edged and all ends woven in. Overall colour effect is much more muted than I expected but nevertheless pleased with it.
