Knitted blanket on Call the Midwife
In Sunday’s episode of Call the Midwife (series 2, episode 8), the midwives and nuns were making a wool blanket.
Over the last year, I've developed a habit of blanket spotting in TV programmes and films. They can be tucked away in the background but I always spot them. This usually results in me pointing and shouting "crochet blanket!" at the TV.
I don't watch many TV shows but I sometimes catch the odd bit of Call the Midwife switching between channels. In Sunday's episode (series 2, episode 8) the midwives and nuns were blanket making.
On a side note, they appeared to be making crochet granny squares with knitting needles (rather than a crochet hook). This blanket is a crochet blanket not a knitted blanket. Perhaps this little detail was overlooked :) Not that important really, the blanket is still great! Hopefully it will inspire lots of people to make crochet granny blankets for their homes.
Want to make one for yourself?
You will need a crochet hook and granny square pattern - if you've never crocheted before, you can find a video tutorial here.
