Swedish Weave Part 2

close up Swedish weave blanket
A long time back I showed the two Swedish weave blankets my Mother-in-law made for my oldest and youngest daughters. Over the summer she gave one to my middle daughter for her 8th birthday. I just realized I have never shown it. She sleeps with it every night so it may not be the cleanest in this photo, but we love it and she, my daughter, defiatly does. Some day I plan on making one for myself, but it hasn't happened yet. Incase you have never seen this type of weaving, you buy Monks cloth and weave into the weave of the cloth forming patterns with yarn. It is very similar to huck weaving, but that is done on a smaller weave for table cloths and things of that sort.

  2. sorry I do not know the name of the pattern I always let my mother in law pick the patterns for my kids. My sisters in law always say what they want but we like it to be more fun for mom and let her pick what she does on them.
