Last weekend was Yarndale and, as part of the event, there was a ‘yarn walk’ through the park between the station and the Auction Mart and I have made this panel to decorate a lamp-post.
When the request came through I already had the little squares which were originally intended to be part of a baby blanket. However, the panel needed to be made quickly and I had the squares to hand so I joined them with coloured stripes and I think it works very well. I had accidentally made one square too many; I had believed I was one short and after the panel was finished discovered the missing (now extra) square in my dressing-gown pocket. My mother was staying and since her hip operation she uses a stick (made by my father) so I used the last square to decorate her stick.
By the way, it was Kim in the office who called the panel a ‘lamp-post cosy’! I thought it was a ‘yarnbomb panel’.
