Didn’t have much money for wool, didn’t feel like making anything complicated either, but wanted to knit! I found 3 really enormous balls of magenta acrylic aran in a cheap shop for £4 each. I used it to make 3 big lengths of rib and stitched them together to make this great big cuddly blanket. It’s very large when stretched out! And just looks nice and unfussy to throw around the house.
