Is it just me, or are you dreaming of warmer weather already too? We’ve passed the acceptable period for snow (December 20th-31st) and now I am SO ready for some sunshine. With the warm weather comes a brighter colour palette like the beautifully Summery rich tones of the Jewels Blanket. Ideal for cosying up on cooler nights, this beginner-friendly, easy crochet blanket by guest designer Michelle Lyons of ForeverAutumn.
