squares for blanket

For my new blanket i have been sewing up squares from my uni samples and now i am making more to finish and develop the blanket.
I am very interested in Shetland lace and 4pyl jumper knitting and have been experimenting with Shetland patterns from all over the UK using different matertails and beads to add a modern touch.
The wool i have been using is the new rowan Sumerspun and and traditional Shetland 4ply wool from Jameson and smith wool.













beads have been a new experiment for me trying to do Shetland patterns using only beads , this has been going well and i do love the patterns that i have been able to make .
