huge cozy blanket throw
















 Month ago, I wanted to start a new blanket for lazy days on the couch. I usually have trouble to decide which pattern to use, when I work on a project. For this throw I wanted to have a simple but yet pretty pattern which I can crochet without much thinking. 

 So eventually I started to write my own pattern. For this huge throw, I used again wool from the former GDR. ( see the other post where I made the cardigan for my daughter) 

Update: it is finally done! I am finished with my cozy and I am very pleased with the outcome. The total size is 150×180 cm.

Warm and cozy cardigan

For this Cardigan I used very old unused sheepswool from the former GDR, so over 30 years old and still in perfect condition 🥰 My daughter wanted to have a cozy cardigan for cold winter days at home. I basically measured her up to have a size and then I started crocheting some simple pattern. I devided this piece into two parts which formed a vest and sewed them together in the back. After that I crocheted the arms. My daughter wanted to help me get finished, so I taught her to crochet the flower applications and the border. She is very pleased with the results...
