Blanket remake

Kiwi-family

{Rachael, the Mama of the family}
Time of past OR future Camino
walking every day for the rest of my life
As some of you are aware I have crocheted a blanket to tell the story of each of my Caminos. The first one was a massive monstrosity (the blanket, not the camino) and it has been annoying me so I pulled it all apart last week and ended up remaking it into three - one camino blanket for us and two smaller ones.

(Spot the hint at a yellow arrow amidst the autumn colours - it’s actually less obvious in real life!)

The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

beautiful.
The first winter we came and started Peaceable (2006) one of the first pilgrims who stayed here, a lady from Illinois, sent us a simple quilt as a thank-you/housewarming gift (and probably a gesture of sympathy for the next poor soul who slept on the mattress on the kitchen floor).
Years later, it is bashed-up and stained, but still treasured. It´s on the guest-room bed upstairs.

Four Seasons has just found its home. I'll bring it with me next time and deliver in person if possible. Now I'm REALLY hoping to find super-cheap flights for a winter Frances stroll.
