Spring abstract blanket because cozy blankets aren’t just for winter. Switch up your colour pallet to some fresh pastels and get lost in the rhythm of granny squares to create yourself a cosy blanket for time for spring. This blanket is designed using the most beautiful soft pastel shades but unlike the first run of this blanket, it’s made using Aran weight yarn and has been redesigned giving you the perfect baby size blanket!
