Blanket

I knitted a blanket using the wool I’d previously indigo dyed. It was knitted in 3 panels and then crocheted together. I am very happy with the variegated texture of the indigo wool. Two 2ply yarns were knitted together so the slight dyeing variations can be seen giving the ‘ikat’ effect, which adds a satisfying visual texture to the blanket.
