I-Patch

The eagle-eyed among you may have noticed in recent months the ‘patch count’ that has been slowly increasing in the side bar. Back in April, with the prospect of several long train journeys to endure, I decided to start making a patchwork blanket. (Wool, I reasoned, was much lighter to carry than books).

Having reached the goal of fifty knitted rectangles I then stitched them together and attached a psychedelic array of tassels to create a warm and colourful blanket. The question of course now remains: what will I do on all those long train journeys in the future?
