Mishelka Blanket
"The Mishelka Blanket is a beautiful Tunisian crochet home décor item that is a pleasure to make and a pleasure to use and gift! It features a heart colourwork pattern that alternated with squares of plain colour, creating all over diagonal heart pattern. The blanket is crocheted in columns using 2 colours and join as you go technique. This is a fun project for when you would like to work colourwork but not having numerous balls of yarn or bobbins on the go at any one time! "
