Soft as a Cloud - new pattern.

Last week (to coincide with May's Newsletter) a new pattern was released!




This one  was pretty fun to make - not to mention is was a quick one!

I was inspired by all the rainbow projects I've been seeing online, many a response to the global pandemic we are currently experiencing. If you'd like to see some of them - have a look at my previous rainbow round up - Rainbow Connections 



The cloud uses 'Sweetheart Soft' by Scheepjes. This happened to be in my stash along with av royal blue, so it also served as part of my ongoing 'use what you have on hand' mindset. A similar fluffy yarn could be substituted, and although it's hard to see the stitches, I could feel them fairly easily. 




Just quietly - how good would it look with the Fruit Cup fade! Due to the pandemic, I don't have access to the blanket at the moment to get a photo together - so I'll have to work on that later. 


Thanks again for reading! I hope you are all safe and well.

Emma.

  1. Ooh! That soft fluffy Scheepjes yarn might just be the thing I've been seeking for months. It is good to see how it looks once it's worked into a project. Thanks for sharing the information (and making the fluffy cloud to show us). Are there Australian suppliers of that yarn?
