The striped crochet blanket and cushion set are made using Special XL Tweed and is crocheted diagonally to get these interesting diagonal stripes. The plain blanket is crocheted using Cream and Duck Egg in Special XL. We love the warm tones of the striped pair and can see them fitting in well in a country cottage.
