The soft sage green feels calm and modern, but the design is just as beautiful in oatmeal, dusty blue, warm clay or soft grey — the sheep motifs stand out against any background shade.

❤️ A Handmade Piece You'll Treasure Again and Again

A handmade blanket is one of those things that quietly follows a child through the years — from the cot, to the sofa, to a den built out of dining chairs. Every stitch you make is part of that story.

Once you've made the first one, you'll want another in a different colourway. Change the ground to warm oatmeal or dusty blue and the same little flock looks completely new.
