As I am sure you know by now, I love hand-dyed yarn.

So much so that at the end of 2024 I decided that I was going to try and dye my own.

We were deep in the testing and preparation of releasing Opal
Hunting, and I needed something that I could do to relax my mind
a little bit at the time.

Once I had a few colours that I could co-ordinate together happily Idecided that I needed to make something out of them.

All otherdesigns, patterns and ideas were set aside, and I got to work on this blanket.

Made up of 137 Hexi’s to get the flower effect (For the 4 ply version), finding a join that I liked and then going about my business making it all.

The joy of starting and completing a Hexi in a matter of minutes
and seeing how each one turns out different but similar was so
much fun.
Once you have made a few Hexi’s it will quickly become a favourite for watching Netflix, travelling in the car, bus or train.

I can’t wait to see what combination you come up with.

To help you organise your perfect layout I have included a blank layout for you to colour in to see your placement
which was a great idea by one of the testers, Sarah.

You will find this on the very last page of the pattern .
