Lia's Blanket

A blanket designed for my friend Malika's little one, Lia Christina Barros.  

I adapted the Northern Lights stitch pattern from one of Barbara Walker's stitch dictionaries, and added a contrasting seed stitch border.  I might rework this pattern.  Then Lia will get another blanket. 

Damp Wool
