Another fabulous bargain from the charity shop. I seem to have a knack for finding hand knitted and crochet blankets. This one is so thick that I'm using it as a rug for the children to play on. What will I find next?

Oh what a beautiful find Andrea. It looks so nice and cosy, perfect for tea parties too:) I need to come shopping with you:) xx
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous - what a fab find!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! And such a happy place to play on!
ReplyDeleteI'm not that lucky... (fabulousness and bargains concerning)
you are soooo lucky and i'm so jealous too. this makes me want to knit or crochet one up right now!!! but, it would be great to just find one already done like you have. i'm telling you, you canNOT find stuff like this here at our thrift stores. maybe an antique shop, but then i'll just make one because they'll charge me the same as the wool itself.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine spending so much time on a hand knitted blanket like that one and have it end up in a charity shop! Just think of how many stitches went into it...Good thing it found itself into a good home.
ReplyDeleteWhat a super find, it's quite unusual as well, kind of squares in squares - well done! I need to get down to my local charity shop I feel I'm missing out, don't think I've been since Xmas.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful - how could anyone give it away? I'm seriously jealous.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors in this. It surely looks like you've made perfect use of it!
