Rambling Rose Blanket Kit (Annual Four)
We now offer handy kits for all our patterns in The Annual (issue four). This is the ravishing Rambling Rose Blanket by Fay Dashper-Hughes, and all kits include enough yarn to crochet the blanket, along with a limited edition button badge and a fab project bag to keep it all safe. Happy crocheting! Please be aware that the kit does not include a copy of the Annual as we know some of you will have ordered them separately.
Rambling roses are a quintessential feature of any cottage garden. They offer interest all year round from fragrant blooms at the height of summer to colourful rosehips in the waning autumnal months. Our Yarnadelic Worsted makes a soft blanket that is perfect for picnics. The main body is crocheted in a simple one-row repeat followed by border rounds. The rosehips are added as an optional embellishment, using a mixture of surface crochet and embroidery. Pattern uses UK crochet terms.
There is also a wrap-version of this pattern, which you can find here.
