    About

    Jocelyn loves butterflies. As with my grandson Daniel, she had outgrown her baby blanket. When my daughter found out what I was making for Daniel, she asked me to make one for Jocelyn. I did use graphs of butterflies for the blanket, but did not use a pattern. There are 25 squares, 12" each with a square holding a rainbow in the middle. She told me what colors to put in the rainbow, too. I made it in five panels and sewed the panels together. I found that to be much easier than sewing the individual squares together. This was a huge project. I must say I had no idea what I was getting into when I started. I used Plymouth Encore yarn.
