When I saw a similar afghan posted by @jellybean I just knew I had to make one too. I’ve seen the pattern called several different names but the one I used is … Swirl in a Square …
I’ve never used Mandala yarn before but when we were only holidays last week, I found it on sale at Michaels so decided to give it a try. In hindsight, I wish I had started with a different colour so the pattern was more visible in the centre.
Right?! Lion’s Ferris Wheel, and Mandala Tweeds are slaying it for commercial color ways. I was so nosey, I had to check, and Mandala was introduced in 2017 and I think Ferris Wheel hit the market 2018.
It’s a great yarn for gifted projects. I will NEVER make something someone has to ‘care for’. And the color ways are just spot on!
