Time for something different?
Hexagons!

I do love a challenge, and felt I wanted something to test my design skills a little more.

Anastasia is an old Greek name, and that of an ancient saint, the patron saint of weavers!

Maybe the most famous person with this name was the youngest daughter of the last Tsar or Emperor of Russia.

The name Anastasia means resurrection or one who will be reborn.

I started this design just after my Mother passed away, and when the name kept popping in to my head, I just had to look up its’ meaning.

It seemed perfect to me to design something that would symbolise that life, love, and hope all continue long after we are gone.

And so, I named each of the pieces in the spirit of life, love, and hope.

For Aran/Worsted weight yarn and a 5/5.5mm hook I suggest an increase of 25% for each colour, or total of 7006m/7650yd
Obviously in Aran/Worsted weight yarn, and with a larger hook, you will have a much larger blanket.

Or another option, would be to make more hexagons, and have 5 columns rather than the three that I have done, again you would obviously need more yarn for that option.

There is lots of texture within the stitches, and the design is a very dense, warm and snuggly blanket.
