My second ever knitting project, you may have caught sight of this in my
finished object coffee cosy post last week. As I created
this zigzag baby blanket before I started the blog, I felt it was a shame not
to give it a mention. Although due to its size it took me a while to knit, I
was pretty pleased with the result at the time, so much so, I couldn't face
giving it away. The purple, cream, grey and light blue colourway really works,
don't you think?

I've also always been a fan of the distinctive zigzag pattern Italian
fashion house
Missoni
so often incorporates into its range. Even as a super novice at the time, I got
on ok with this pattern and would definitely knit another one.
Special thanks to
Debbie Orr for providing such a lovely free knitting
pattern via
Ravelry.
I used
Debbie Bliss
double knitting yarns for the blanket, the sea grass chest is from
John Lewis and I picked up
the cowhide rug many years ago in Sydney, Australia.

Oh by George, it's absolutely gorgeous. I hope it finds a good home!
