Now to get back to finishing the others!
I don’t think its possible to ever have too much Lego around – ok apart from when its on the floor and gets stepped on…Luckily with this there will be no sharp edges to harm your feet and it will brighten up your plain tissue boxes.

The hooded blanket makes are continuing with this very happy mallard duck.
There are now also two sizes in the pattern for all the hooded blankets.

I thought about putting a cat blanket together not long after starting on my mouse one, and i have now managed to get all the pieces finished off and attached. I love the eye detail on this blanket, I really wanted them to stand out and using the bright green colour definitely achieved that.
The pattern is available over on my Etsy shop along with the mouse, frog, pig, puffin, and other animal blankets.
I’ve been working on a few more hooded blanket patterns over the last few weeks and am super excited to get this mouse blanket uploaded.
