A gorgeous keepsake. 55"x55" but you can customize the size by the number of houses you knit. Requires 12 colours (2 skeins of each of 11 colours & 3 of the one you choose for the border) for the full size blanket but you can make it as you wish. Change to 6 colours and do a theme. Make it yours!

This one will become a sure staple in your wardrobe. Thin striped & light weight. Knitted top down so length is easily adjustable (don't forget to buy a bit extra if you want it longer). Tons & tons of colour combinations to choose from.
