What you need to know

Treat a new arrival to this precious Peter Rabbit™ blanket from Debbie Bliss.

Beatrix Potter’s delightful animal characters are true childhood favourites, none more so than the mischievous Peter Rabbit™. In this gorgeous heirloom blanket, Debbie Bliss has recreated this cheeky bunny in colourwork, along with his three sisters and a few tasty treats from Mr McGregor’s garden. They’re set against a background of cables and bobbles with additional embroidery for the finishing touches. See our info panel for embroidery tips.
