Some of you may already be familiar with Sandra Cherry Heart’s Battenberg blanket, which I have now made a baby version of:

Mine is made in Yarnsmiths Pebble Haze dk, Limestone (C250), Basalt (2C020). Titanite (2C120), Olivine (2C130), Chalcedony (2C160), Fluorite (2C170), and Petalite (2C200) on a 4.5mm hook.

Each colour is a 3-round granny square joined-as-you-go to a Limestone square. The blanket is 10 squares wide x 13 squares long, which came to 55 x 69 cm with a simple border. It weighs 318g, of which about 160g was Limestone, and about 30g each of the six colours. It would make a good stash -buster – as indeed this was!
