What you need to know

Now that you’ve finished your squares and frilly border, your blanket is ready to decorate with spectacular appliqué flowers. We start with the first row along the top of your blanket. The pretty pansy goes on the top left, followed by a dainty daisy and finishing with a classic clematis. There’s no colourwork on any of these motifs, just easy knit and purl stitches and simple shaping.
