Daisy Puff Hexagons
This blanket welcomes the arrival of spring in a riot of glorious colour!
Create a garden of beautifully puffy daisies, and have fun with colour while
you create this joyful blanket. The hexagon motifs are joined together using
my modular join as you go technique and then a border is added around the edge
to frame the blanket.

Choosing Yarn
The yarn listed above reflects the yarn used in the original blanket and
in the pictures in this pattern. However, if you would prefer to keep to
one yarn brand, you could try swapping the King Cole Laurel for Bellissima
Sugar Snap (3926) and the Sunshine for Mellow Yellow (3925).
Also please note that only very small amounts of the Totally Teal,
Perfectly Peach and Heather colours are used in the center of the Daisies.
To reduce the amount of yarn needed you could leave out these shades and
substitute with the other colours.
