Helen Shrimpton - Arcadia Blanket - Winter (Stylecraft Yarn Pack) - Product Description
Arcadia is a beautiful new blanket designed by Helen Shrimpton of Crystals and Crochet, which can be made as a baby size or full size blanket. This blanket is worked in the round and is typical of Helen’s designs with lots of texture and a wonderful mix of stitches.
"The original Arcadia was a retreat in the Peloponnese Mountains of ancient Greece. It was considered a place of great beauty and pastoral repose. A place of rustic innocence and simple, quiet pleasure. A poetic shaped space associated with bountiful natural splendour and harmony. A haven for wood nymphs and other beings to play on Earth.
The simplicity of the shapes and stitches within Arcadia reflect the innocence to be gained from quietly observing the beauty all around us." - Helen Shrimpton, Crystals and Crochet
