This was a long project!! Started June 2021, but only finished January 2022!! I really like it, but it hasn’t been a favourite make. It wasn’t something that was easy to remember, so constantly needed the pattern, but weirdly I got a bit bored with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I honestly did NOT like the half square triangles round the outside!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I did it in the suggested colours in Scheepjes Colour Crafter. Below are the 4 colour combinations for the Joana’s mandalas, and then all the colours together:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started by doing one of each octagon:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Once I had made one of each, I did all the Joana’s mandalas first (the one on the right above), and then finished the Labyrinths (the one on the left). I did take it away on holiday and do some while away, and made quite a lot of progress. I added the octagon rounds at the end. I also ran out of the cream or grey yarn at one point and had to go back to Black Sheep Wool. I knew I would need to go back for some because they hadn’t had enough balls when I first bought them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then the middle squares and half square triangles:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All ready to put together:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I played about with positioning the colours on the floor, to try not to get similar colour blocks next to each other, and then started the mammoth task of crocheting together… I only noticed afterwards that I think I have my labyrinths and joanas the wrong way round. However, I have looked more closely at other peoples’ blankets on the Facebook group since, and some are more random..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After this stage the final corner triangles are crocheted. And all ends sewn in, before the border. I often photograph the ends when all sewn in, as it is a very satisfying moment when that is done!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The corners, plus border:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
