yarn, hook and tools

It’s time to fill in your Progress Worksheet again! Go to “my crochet hook size” and complete it with the info from down below.

To make your Midnight Garden Blanket you will need:

• Midnight Garden Blanket Crochet Kit

or

• 25mm (U) bamboo crochet hook
• 2 stitch markers
• Chunky Yarn Joining Kit
• scissors
• tape measure
• Homelea Bliss yarn – the tables below includes the number of 300g skeins of Homelea Bliss yarn that you’ll need, or the length of a yarn that’s about 1cm (0.4in) thick for a multi-coloured or single colour blanket:

It’s a good idea to keep all your blanket making goodies together in a handy place – it’ll make it easier to keep motivated, plus they’re all so lovely to look at. I love having mine in a basket beside my favourite crocheting chair.

about the yarn

Homelea Bliss is a super chunky / super bulky merino wool yarn that is soft and squishy, and it feels lovely against your skin. This special yarn is fully grown and processed in Australia with no overseas processing (it’s uncommon for an Australian wool yarn to not have some overseas processing).

The twist in Homelea Bliss means that what you make will be an heirloom that you will use for many, many years. It will keep its good looks for a long time, it won’t cover your home, or you, in fluff and will only pill slightly after repeated use.

Homelea Bliss is about 1cm / 0.4in thick and is available in a range of gorgeous colours.
