about

Hello! It’s Lynda here from Homelea Lass and I’m so glad that you’re joining me in making the Wrapped In Love Blanket.

Crocheting a blanket for a loved one is a special process – your connection with them is infused into every stitch, and it’s a piece of you that they can take with them wherever they go. This is the essence of this blanket and with 8 different sizes from baby up to king bed size, there’s a size for everyone.

This blanket design came to life when I was intrigued with how the Wrap My Soul In Love crochet pattern would look made in a single colour. The texture of the stitches meld together beautifully and create a blanket that you just to snuggle up in.

I’m imagining many of these blankets being made and given to all the favourite people in your life, so you can wrap them in love wherever they are. I hope you enjoy making this blanket and infusing your love into each stitch.

The Wrapped In Love Blanket uses simple stitch patterns and I recommend making it after the Warm Heart Blanket, Bliss Blanket or Midnight Garden Blanket.
