I created the Dreaming of Collection of baby blankets, inspired by a Meteorologist’s Dream. Seven baby blankets: one baby blanket created for each individual weather pattern that was included in the original blanket.

This baby blanket was inspired by the clouds section of a Meteorologist’s Dream. If you like spotting shapes in the sky this is an easy one. It features different sizes of clouds forming a heart in the sky. This is a blanket of happiness, love and peace.

This blanket is 120stitches x 120 rows, it features a single pattern colour and seven background colours. The final size using 4mm hook is approximately 76cm (30in) x 90cm (36in
