Any Questions? Let me know in the comments below.
Will these instructions continue? I’m thinking of making this blanket as a surprise gift for a friend who is expecting (it’s not a terribly practical design for a newborn, but it’s a beautiful accent item)
Yes. We are re-grouping and getting things back onto a schedule. Thanks for your interest. 🙂
Any chance the last remaining steps will be posted? Such a shame for it to be left incomplete
