This is ours, and it's given us an idea for a give-away! It's the adorable Chevron Baby Blanket made in lovely Debbie Bliss Mia. The pattern's a free download on Ravelry, and it's the easiest knit. It takes just five balls of yarn and it's one of our customers' most popular choices for new babies.
There's a wonderful twenty two colours in the Mia range, and so many possible combinations. Which would you choose? Let us know, and you can win the yarn to make it!
From now until midnight on Sunday May 17th, tell us in the comments section below what colours you'd use in your five-ball blanket, using the colour names from our online shop page. On Monday May 18th we'll draw a lucky winner at random, so you could be making your custom-coloured blanket in no time at all!
Gentle pastels or vibrant primaries? Funky or subtle? We can't wait to see!

I’d go with buttermilk (19), corn (14), peach (12), ruby (9). Possibilities seem endless!
So many possibilities. These are today’s colours, ask me tomorrow and it could be a whole different palette.
White, marine, robins egg blue, lt pink and corn.
I love these colors together: Aqua, Citrus, Peach, Petal and Silver! They look fun together.
Silver, Marine, Fuchsia, Mauve & White. A recipe for a
luxurious baby blanket-I like it!
My colours are Mauve, Buttermilk, Leaf and Corn. I think these would blend well together and create a lovely blanket.
Stone, Silver, Ecru, Robin Egg and Corn
buttermilk, citrus, rose, aqua, and fushia
leaf, silver, white, aqua and marine
No more babies or grandbabies, so I want this to put over my knees on cold winter evenings. Fuchsia, ruby, petal, light pink and rose.
I think the primary colours work well for a baby blanket (especially when you don’t know the sex!) so I’d go with red, yellow, light green, baby blue, a darker blue.
Lovely colours. I would try ruby, rose, petal, light pink and cinnamon. I think they would blend well together.
Stone, leaf, duck, aqua and buttermilk. Lovely natural colours that appeal to the biologist and buttermilk-drinker in me :-)
It was hard because all the colors are beautiful, but I wanted brights for a young boy so I chose leaf, sky, corn, aqua and cinnamon.
It would be great to win because I need to make two blankets and this would be a great pattern for one of them.
Thanks for the opportunity!
I was just thinking about starting a blanket for my baby who is due in July! I think I’d go with Robin egg, aqua, mallard, buttermilk, marine.
Living in a very girly home, I would choose a selection of pastels rose, citrus, ecru, peach and duck.
Another picture-perfect sample!
I’d go with marine, ecru, mauve, duck, and silver!
Ecru, Duck, Mauve, Fuchsia,Sky
For me it’s buttermilk, corn, citrus, ecru and white. Lovely!

So hard to choose! I picked Ecru, Robin Egg, Duck, Aqua and Marine.
