DAISY CAMPER BLANKET/WRAP...NooNoo is getting a bit of a makeover


About a week ago i gave you a couple of new lacy options for joining squares
I'm using a version of option 3 for a new 

You can see i've changed the centre flower for the New Camper Blanket/wrap, it shows you if you have a 12 section centre you can add this join to any similar square





Daisy Camper blanket/wrap pattern
For now all I have done is a long first row over 6' so perfect length for a wrap to start me off







 Lacy join option 3: 
NooNoo Camper is getting a make over with a new wrap/blanket using the new table cloth as inspiration
I say wrap/blanket because it will be a 6' wrap to start with and grow over time 

 Table Cloth Colours
USING 6 COLOURS
2 Shades of grey, cream, duck egg blue, soft sage green and 2shades of pistachio and ochre DK


I am using dk and a 4mm Hook
But it could be made in Aran and 5mm hook
