About

I knitted this blanket whilst island hopping up the west coast of Scotland on my motorbike in 2019. I bought wool as I went, knitted squares and posted them home to myself.

One square knitted up like a stormy Hebridean beach scene and it had been on my mind that it would make a good whole blanket theme - a blanketscape!
 

So the idea was born of designing textured squares as building blocks of a landscape, using photos of the textures in nature as inspiration.

Lockdown 3.0 meant I had to stay local, but living in Devon means I am lucky enough to live close enough to cycle to Dawlish Warren, so the first blanket has a local theme, rather than anywhere further flung.

​

I'd love you to have a go at making your own blanketscapes, so I will be posting the patterns for the squares here on this site over time.  Please credit @blanketscapes on Instagram or Facebook for your final creations, I'd love to see what you make.

I have made the patterns available for free but they are © Blanketscapes, the patterns are not to be copied or resold. I'm happy for you to make and sell finished blankets using these patterns for charitable, non-commercial, purposes only.
