This blanket was inspired by lazy mornings in bed and family time on the lounge. Made with soft Australian Merino Wool, it feels snuggly and warm.

The stylish ribbed texture of this blanket is created by double crochet (US single crochet) stitches that are worked through the back loop of the stitch below. The ribbed lines of the border and the centre run perpendicular to each other, and the stitches on the edges of the blanket are worked through both loops to give the blanket structure and strength.

There’s something special about a chunky blanket, and the softness and warmth of your Macarla Blanket will wrap you and your family in love. I’ll show you exactly how to make it in the included online course (with left and right handed video tutorials)

skill level – intermediate

The Macarla Blanket includes more involved stitch patterns and shapes and I show you exactly what to do in the included online course (with left and right handed video tutorials). I recommend that you’ve done some crocheting before and you’ll need to take your time when starting each part as this can be a bit tricky.

This is what you’ll learn while making the Macarla Blanket:

  • double crochet through the back loop only (UK terminology) / single crochet through the back loop only (US terminology)
  • crocheting more complex shapes
  • joining crochet together using whip stitch

It helps to know how to do these stitches and techniques before starting the Macarla Blanket:

  • how to wind a skein into a ball
  • slip knot
  • chain
  • double crochet (UK terminology) / single crochet (US terminology)
  • counting stitches
  • checking the row length
  • join chunky yarn using the Chunky Yarn Joining Kit
  • how to fasten off
  • how to weave in ends

 

made in Australia

I make all of the Homelea Lass kits by hand in the Homelea Lass studio. It’s located on a remote cattle property near Quilpie in south west Queensland, Australia. I use Australian made components whenever possible.

 

I know you’re going to love crocheting your Macarla Blanket!

With love, Lynda.
