Primrose Blanket
One of my friends is currently going through IVF and is
trying so hard to get pregnant. I designed this blanket for her. She has just
had a miscarriage and lost her baby. Unlike most of the items I make which are
donated to charities such as blankets without borders, warm baby project etc. I
am going to keep this one safe for her in the hope that she will be able to
carry a healthy child. I have provided this pattern for free, like all my
patterns. If you use it though, please consider giving a donation to the
Miscarriage Association here: https://www.miscarriageassociation.org.uk/get-involved/donating/
Thanks,
Felicity
