Sunburst Granny Blanket
A stunning heirloom blanket, made in our beautifully soft and warm Plump DK. Make it as colourful or as subtle as you want.
This was really fun to make in Plump DK. I did all the circular centres first, and tried to keep them quite random, although I have noticed that I did have favourite combinations! You could crochet them together when you are doing the final round but I found it easier completing them all first and then slip stitching them together.
You will need:
Plump DK:
9 colours (one skein of each) for the centres, I used Marmalade, Rhubarb Crumble, Gooseberry Fool, Lemon Curd, Blueberry Muffin, Earl Grey, Fondant Fancy, Peppermint Cream and Damson Jam.
7 skeins of the outside colour, (shown in Pavlova).
Any border would look lovely, but if you do the border in the picture then you will need an additional 3 skeins (shown in Peppermint). So 19 skeins of Plump DK in total.
