WC’s Version: Seventh Day of Christmas

Squares Blanket

I came across this photo of a knitted blanket I made some years ago. I don’t remember it but the photo was taken in the back garden of our house in Dublin, which is a clue. Over the years we were periodically in Dublin before we moved overseas to work in St. Lucia, Fiji, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Ghana, or Kenya.
