Lets talk colorways..
There are four colour options for the Floralia CAL Lillian, Vivian, Evelyn and Martha, all in rich palettes of Special DK. The colourways are named after strong women influncers in mine and Lindsays life. A lovely way to honour the goddess Flora.
The Floralia blanket is suitable for everyone from the adventurous beginner to the expert crocheter. The free pattern, which will be in eight weekly parts, will be posted on the here on the Pippin Poppycock website and in the Pippin Crochet Club on Facebook. There is also help on hand from a collaboration with fellow Blogstar, Helen Shrimpton from Crystals and Crochet. Helen has recorded a full set of video tutorials which will appear on Helen’s YouTube channel when the CAL launches on 1st July.

You can use whatever yarn your comfortable using. I love Stylecraft Special DK which is 100% acrylic not wool. I also love cotton/bamboo yarn.
