Lily Blanket/Afghan
Lily is named after my mother; she died in 2007 so this blanket was made as a tribute to her. Although she was a seamstress she also knitted and crocheted. She loved colour so I used as many bright colours as I could find, I’m sure she would of loved the blanket.
Size
Lily measures approx. 40 x 55 ins, (232 motifs)
(15 rows wide, alternate rows of 15 & 16 long).
Yarn
Lily is a scrap blanket and best made with oddments from your stash in as many different colours as possible.
