The Killarney Cross Blanket will wrap you in the soft luxury of 100% Australian alpaca. The glorious light weight yarn from Great Ocean Road Woollen Mill showcases the natural colors of the alpacas reared on the property. Because it’s processed and spun with care for the animals and the land as guiding principles, this yarn has the warmth, softness and drape you expect from premium alpaca fiber.

The Killarney Cross motif is simple to crochet, and makes a bold graphic statement when joined into a blanket. The 6” squares feature front post stitches for added textural interest. The clear, complete instructions include expert tips for making front post stitches without causing the sides of your squares to draw in. The size of the blanket will be determined by the number of motifs you make.

This blanket will become a cherished reminder of and the people and animals of South West Victoria, Australia.
