Ok the ‘Fan Club’ week has gone on a little longer than a week – but behind the scenes life has been slightly crazy with work/school plays/general stuff, so I am so sorry I could not fill you in with my last reveal.
I am so thrilled to show you some of the Baby Crochet leaflets which I designed for Debbie and have been published by Designer Yarns. Creating these designs is perhaps one of my happiest yarn moments. They are exactly the style and the look of what I really enjoy creating. Having Debbie’s colour and design eye makes the process even more pleasurable and I tried hard to create work that sat very much within her fashion house but was something I would want to make for a new born. I do hope you like Miss Mouse, I hope she has a very distinctly British feel with her cute Liberty print ears. Creating her was really a little homage to my two oldest school friends. We always meet up and visit Liberty in London once a year and so this small toy is a memento of those great visits.
The zig-zag blanket is perfect for the cot and the buggy and has that wonderful colour combinations which are so distinct from Debbie’s colour palette. Work in 4ply creates a softer more drapey fabric, ideal for soft new-born skin.
These leaflets should be available soon in your local yarn shops. I do hope you like them and will enjoy making them. If you do make your own version don’t forget to send some photos.
Love these designs. Unfortunately there is no LYS in my area. If I want specialty yarns I have to order on line. So never get these lovely leaflets.
But I did want to tell you your designs are lovely.

Emma,
How do I find the leaflet that features your original pattern and original 4-ply Rialto colors for the crochet blanket for Debbie Bliss as shown here in this post? Is there a way to order it online?
