Its a really fun and quick blanket to make. I'm ashamed to say that I don't know the name of my rose, I just bought it at the Garden Centre because it was white and had that lovely floribunda, old-fashioned look about it - not very helpful to you though ! Sorry ! I don't think it still has the label on it either. Can you guess that I'm not much of a gardener !!<br />Have a great weekend,<br />Kate xjustpootlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03823474347070110168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6158185159178181078.post-65816217428072862832014-07-09T14:27:04.650-07:002014-07-09T14:27:04.650-07:00Wow Kate, clever you and how brave to cut into it!...Wow Kate, clever you and how brave to cut into it! You've done a fabulous job and it looks lovely on you. Love your 'little woollie' cushion covers, the greens, greys and maroon look so good together and your blanket too - a mixture of knit and crochet? How lovely your white rose is with it's pinky-yellowy buds, what variety is it? Congratulations on your giveaway from Mitzi.
