The Botanical Blanket is all about that stunning floral motif and the mixed stitch border. Knit yourself a piece of art with this blanket! This pattern is perfect for all levels of knitters. If you've never knit lace or in the round before, this would be a fantastic project for you to try.  It is worked from the center out using a mix of Wildflower and Spun Cloud yarns creating a large blossom that expands into simple lace, ending with a botanical border. Its hexagonal shape is wonderful for a lap blanket, for a decorative piece for your couch or bed, or for a baby blanket. This pattern is perfect for all levels of knitters as the lace is geared towards a beginner lever yet the different stitch patterns keep you entertained.  Knit yourself a piece of art with this blanket!
