Happy Cakes Crochet Blanket by Donna Higgins
Every color in the Weepaca lineup, one happy little circle at a time.
Happy Cakes is a traditional crochet motif blanket designed by Donna Higgins for Big Bad Wool, built to show off the complete Weepaca color range. A color chart keeps you on track so yours comes out just like the photo.
The finished size flexes with your palette: roughly 24" wide and anywhere from 33" to 40" long, depending on how many colors you use. Basic crochet is all you need. Do yourself a favor and read through the abbreviations before you start.
This one's made to be used, gently washed, and loved to pieces. Finish it with a 'wear it out' sewn-in tag, and when you're gifting, add a 'wear it out' hang tag with sweet sentiments and care instructions.
Wear it out. Literally and figuratively.
