What George Knits – Copenhagen Building Blocks
This pattern has been on my radar for a while, I’m a big fan of colourwork and enjoy a blanket project from time to time. I loved the idea of the mix and match building theme and I have a friend who lives in Copenhagen so it’s perfect. It all came about because I wanted…
