Colour by Instinct


This crossed bicolour stitch pattern gave me lots of opportunity to play with colours, to mix and match and create new combinations as I went along.

 
I started off thinking it was going to be a sleeveless sweater, ideal for early winter mornings, but it had the feel and the weight of  a blanket. Not enough stitches for a baby blanket, so I decided it was going to be a throw, or a comforter for cold knees in the car.
 

   'A laptop!' my sister said when I gave it to her!

                                               From lap to chair it slid - like a kitten...

                    ...and there it is, in her home!
