A design by Jo Smith for Janie Crow:
I am delighted that Jo Smith from The Spanner Works agreed to design this beautiful blanket for Janie Crow.
Jo is a talented and prolific designer with a fantastic eye for colour. Jo's opulent colour choice means that this blanket is something extra special!
Please note that the yarns used in this pattern are now discontinued by Rowan Yarns, but Jo's pattern should work to a standard 4ply weight if you wish to use your own choice of yarn, although you should expect some slight changes in tension depending on what you choose.
