Hap Blanket

£3

The Hap Blanket is also available as part of the collection Whimsical Little Knits

Snuggle up in this pretty blanket inspired by the traditional everyday shawls of the Shetland Isles. The blanket begins with the centre square of squishy garter stitch worked in a simple stripe pattern. Then the feather and fan (old shale) edging is worked by picking up stitches around the centre square and working outwards in rounds in a stripe pattern that echoes the beautiful shading often found on hap shawls.

Notes

This pattern is a pdf file, which you will be able to download once your payment is complete. All payments are processed by paypal but if you don’t have a paypal account you can use your credit card to make a payment without needing to set one up. If you use a paypal account without funds in it that is not associated with a credit card paypal will process your payment with an echeque, which means there is a delay of several days while the payment is transferred from your bank account.
