Vintage Bouquet for Bethany Blanket!

Similar to Bouquet for Bethany but made from cotton and with an embroidery feature on the edge to give it that old world look.

$5.95 Au

I originally designed this blanket for use with a slow colour change yarn. Then I decided that it could look incredible with a Vintage twist to it.

Vintage Bouquet for Bethany is a blanket that will stand the test of time. It would make a fabulous choice for a Christening or Naming Day Blanket and has an elegance to it that turns heads.

It uses the same concept as its sister blanket Bouquet for Bethany but made in a solid cotton with the added embroidery feature at the border.

I used Bendigo Woollen Mills 4 ply cotton. This is a super soft, quality cotton and well worth using. This is an Australian yarn but they do ship internationally. Any 4 ply/fingering weight yarn will work for this.
