The Memento Blanket Part 2 - Crocuses

Welcome to part two of our memory making, stash busting journey through the year. If you are just joining, be sure to download part 1, February - ,Valentine’. This gives all the instructions you need to make and join the individual squares to form this month’s block. You can download part 1 below

 The theme for my square this month is Crocuses. As I’m writing this, hail is clattering on the roof above me, and it couldn’t feel more like winter. But the first spikes of crocus leaves are appearing, which means spring is on the way.

I’ve included leftover cream and green yarn from my Grandchildren’s Christmas Eve Wishes blankets. I used up some oddments of purples I found in an old project bag, and I played yarn chicken with the last bit of the very first hand-dyed yarn I bought.
