Mitred bed cover

I wish I had your talent - it must be so satisfying.

That's gorgeous!

Retread youve described the process well but it was easy to lose track for me anyway.

So very cheerful for drab days.

I’m in awe of your talents. Lovely bed cover, it looks so warm and cosy.
I love your artwork too. Are you still drawing and painting?

Fabulous x

I found my pattern - once you get the hang of working diagonally - think diamond shape - you never have to sew up.

Also a pic of my blanket, I used every bit of scrap wool, hence some squares are very "bitty".

Am now inspired to make another one, but this time will stick to one colour per square.

Retread - Thank you for sharing. I love your colourful work. Beautiful.

I haven’t painted or drawn for ages.
I’m doing a sponsored “knit a Christmas jumper in December” for cancer research.

So talented 👌

I'll try to find my pattern. Perhaps I should revisit it, but I started it, got a bit confused then had a shoulder injury so switched to crochet.

The most beautiful colours for winter. I love it.

They might look good separated by single-colour ones, but that means estimating in advance where you are going to put the patchknit ones, and when you are working with ends of balls, you can't predict which coloured bits you will have and how long they will be.

True - it's quite hard to predict the whole when choosing colours. I also used variegated wool which I won't do again.

I've started crocheting an extra edging on my blanket in navy, to give it new life 😁.

Fabulous, you’re so talented Purplepixie.

Very nice indeed. 👍

Goodness, that’s amazing! 👏👏

Hi
I made this mitred bed cover from chunky yarn from my stash.
Thanks for looking.

Fabulous, I'm sure it's cosy.

Thank you. It’s lovely and warm.

Beautiful!

Lovely work purplepixie.
I have a lot of stash but various yarns
Maybe I’ll get round to doing something similar someday

Top stuff really colourful and livy looking.

Well Done!
👌🙌👍

Well done you, that looks amazing!

Looking forward to seeing your knitted Christmas jumper x
