Squares for the Beautiful Blogger Blanket from Rome!

Oooooo be prepared for a gorgeous colour explosion! 

Paola of Cottoecucito creates masterpieces of colourful crochet.. the four squares she has sent us for The Beautiful Blogger Blanket are amazing... 



Paola says she found the pattern on the web a long time ago and it was written in Japanese, but she can't remember the source... If anyone recognises it please do let us know... it is a beauty! 



This one is deep magenta at the edge, with blue,purple and dark pink in the centre...


The squares are made of a smooth mercerised cotton which has a  lovely slight sheen to it... 



This is my favourite one...It is a beautiful deep aqua round the edge, with lime green lilac and pale baby pink in the centre...


Here they are altogether... 

Stunning aren't they? 

Thank you so much Paola for sending the squares all the was from Rome... 

You now have 4 chances to win the whole beautiful Blogger Blanket...(winner to be announced on Sunday 4th March at 1pm) GOOD LUCK!

  3. They're gorgeous squares.
    I did mean to join in too, but was busy and it looks now that I'm probably too late, not a very good excuse, sorry. Well done to everyone who has contributed, I'm looking forward to seeing the finished blanket.
