Fiber Arts Friday – Country Flannel

Welcome Fiber Arts Friday folks!

I have been working on a gift for my mom and I’m ½ way through and thought I’d share with you my progress.  I call this one country flannel. 

Mom asked for a warm lap blanket big enough to hide completely under.  When I’m done the dimensions will be 4ft wide by 6ft long which will be plenty big enough I’m sure. It will be really warm too since it’s crochet using 2 strands of yarn so it’s double thick.  I hope she enjoys the flannel pattern and colors; she wanted something that wouldn’t show pet hair too much.   No alpaca in this one, I wanted to be easy to care for and be something she could throw into the washing machine so it’s out of acrylic.
