FEBRUARY THEME Fruit and Flowers
FEBRUARY THEME
FRUIT and FLOWERS
Over the years this has been a regular theme: a sign of freshness, beauty and hope, bringing colour and warmth to our KAS kids.
I confess to being a hopeless
knitter. Crochet is more in my line. Fortunately here at Knit-a-Square we are all welcomed with open arms
Combining both techniques can also be fun, sewing appliqué crochet onto a knit base for example, or appliqués
onto a crochet square.
Please don’t worry if a little veggie sneaks in. It will be welcome among the fruit and flowers.
Finally we would have no fruit, flowers or veggies without the help of the sun, rain and friendly insects.
Don't forget that February's colour is ORANGE

I was gifted this aran wool by an anonymous member some time ago. I started the first panel last September for the garden theme I hosted at that time. Though not a difficult pattern it does require concentration, which I sometimes lack time for, so I knit the rest in small bouts .......but I made it in the end. No 60.

You certainly are productive Karen, I love the way you have used the self striping yarn and your design in this blanket :)

Beautiful! I always like a diagonal pattern because it seems so lively. Is this another demonstration of your newly-acquired crochet skills for the border??? Well done!

LOVE how this striping yarn has worked up, Karen!! Clever ides to make wider panels, so the stripes are narrower than they would have been in 8" strips. (I must try to remember this for future reference, too.) Such pretty yarn it is and must have been a pleasure to work with.....and a pattern/texture in the panels, too!!..... Good job!!

Lovely use of colours. It looks as though it will be very warm.

When I started this blanket I was thinking ‘citrus’ colours, when it was finished I saw orange and yellow marigolds….
