'The Story of My Favourite Blanket' S.2 Ep.6 'Design Diary' (Patreon)

Welcome back to Season 2 of our 'Design Diary' series!

In late 2022 Kay conceived the idea for a blanket that would go on to become one of our most popular series ever. That was of course 2023's 'My Favourite Blanket' series. In this episode of 'Design Diary' join Kay as she looks back to her initial designs and talks you through the development of the 'My Favourite Blanket' pattern. She also takes a rather interesting tangent along the line of dishcloths!
