Running Bear blanket spin off design...it works

Spin off sample, from the new Running Bear Blanket......

I have a pattern that works, now to play with colours.

 Burnt orange to strong and the yellow needs softening i think, just for starters..

update: it's grown but still not speaking to me yet!

Free Form Trellis wrap/cowl

Still doing a huge sort out and came across this 

 Festival FF Trellis wrap 

Remember these from 2015?

I'd forgotten i added some to a FF Trellis wrap, its got popped into the sample box to be discovered at a later date...

Diamond Festival Bunting..didn't know what to do with them really in 2015, another sample, [hundreds in my 20+ sample boxes], part made into a wrap/scarf

I had forgotten all about adding them to a Free Form Trellis wrap also only part made

enough to finish it...came to light because of the FF Trellis wrap in Hayfield Spirit..seem also discontinued..i really do need a sort out don't i?

But its says on Ravelry this Wendy Festival Chunky yarn is  still available but its years old so you might find it a little difficult to find now but such a pretty yarn

Hayfield Spirit FF Trellis wrap with flower trim

Funny how you repeat favourite shapes and patterns, this is the one I started months ago and never completed...same FF Trellis pattern dk no chunky as above and a 48 base chain in stead of a 68 for the dk....now find the yarn is out of stock everywhere...nooo!
Although i think you can still get it in chunky...looks like a cowl not a wrap then and i finish the Festival version..lots of that in the stash

MANDALA BORDER

All 16 of the granny squares are added now and i've started on the ripple border.
The Mandala Oval, is almost completed, just a few more rounds of the border and a finishing edge stitch. Hope to complete stage 3 of the pattern early next week.

Loving the pattern and want to make another in a riot of colour, in fact i have a few balls of Riot yarn that might be in the next one..watch this space.

First rounded second started...

BEFORE THE BORDER AND EDGING

MEASURES: With just one round of the border done and Unblocked, approx. 52"/132cm at the longest side, so far. 
WEIGHS: Approx. 550g

It needs at least another 6" all round adding a foot to the width.
