It's going to be a beautiful blanket. The only thing about vertical stranding that might be bothersome is working out exactly how much wool to begin with!
Jane, this blanket will be a treasure for sure and so adorable when its finished. Are you using handspun cotton? I thought I read that you were using cotton in one of your posts. Bravo to you for spinning it yourself. The giraffe motif is so appropriate.
The border looks really nice with those cute little giraffes " all in a row".
ReplyDeleteWhat is the stitch in the centre, Jane? Some kind of honeycomb st?

ReplyDeleteThis one is wool, but I do like to spin cotton. When I was in Zimbabwe I ran a business producing handspun cotton yarn for sale.
DeleteSo adorable already!!! :)
