From Grandma with Love

This blanket carries a very special story — it began as a way to wrap our children in the memory of their grandma Geli. Inspired by her mix of timeless elegance and modern style, I designed lacy squares in her favorite berry shades, lovingly recreated by my friend Susanne after the first set was lost to moths. Square by square, the blanket grew, each stitch holding warmth, comfort, and cherished memories. Now finished, it feels like a hug from her — and I’m sure Geli would have loved it.

Yardage

• 3 skeins in Taupe for the border

• 1 skein each in Brombeere, Marsala, Bougainvillea, Rosenholz, Mandelblüte and Viola for the squares

How big do you want your blanket to be? I suggest a 6x6 size, so you‘ll need to knit 36 squares - six in each colorway. It‘s very useful to weigh the very first square to find out how many grams you need for one, and then see if you can get six from each skein. You can also adjust the needle size if necessary.
