    About

    Sitting beside the hospital bed of my husband, whilst recovering from a serious operation, gave me time to think....... too much!! Every what if, but, why and wherefore came into my mind and I allowed them to torture me.
    So I decided to use the hours sitting at his bedside to do something productive, to have something to show for all that time spent in the hospital whilst he was sleeping or not communicating.
    We were expecting our first grandchild in the Autumn, so I spent those summer months producing this blanket. It stopped me allowing those thoughts taking over my life, and kept my sanity, and kept me calm at a time when panic could have been overwhelming and destructive.
    It's really a summer I want to forget, but then we were blessed with a beautiful grandson and my husband is well on the road to a full recovery. Job (almost) done!

      finally - I found the magazine on line and went thru the entire magazine before I finally found the textured blanket. Go from the bottom up and you will find it easier. If you can't find it let me know. I am on knitting on FaceBook

      Hi Jan this is a beautiful pattern! I’m having my first baby and my mum has been wanting to know me a blanket. I love this blanket but we’re not sure how to download or purchase the pattern. If you could let me know how to get it that would be great! Thanks Mel

      Great, you have just reminded me of a jumper I knitted years ago. I still have the Woman's Weekly pattern I loved it so much!
