I really enjoyed making this Blanket and would love to do it again.This was a custom made order going to a couple in Texas.......they will be warm! I machine knit the whole blanket in 3 sections and used my new linker machine to put it all together and added a sturdy rib around the whole perimeter and again used the linker......i love that machine.......it makes finishing so much easier and neater.Made from 100% pure qiviut the blanket measures 90''X 90'' and took 960 grams to complete.This was the largest project i have made todate from pure qiviut and it put a big dent in my yarn stash!
can you send me info about custom Qivuit work. I am very interested.

Wow! Beautiful doesn't begin to describe this blanket.
ReplyDeleteI can only imagine how warm this must have kept you as you worked on it! (Kind of like how firewood warms you a few times even before you burn it.)
Katie, qiviut is such a wonderful light weight fibre to work with & the blanket only becomes softer with age, its an awesome Magical Fibre !
DeleteInquiring to see if you would be willing to do a king sized blanket and what the estimated cost would be?
