NEW RELEASE!!! KNITTING PATTERN -- Oliver Set - P281 (A)

$24.20

The origins of OGE Knitwear Designs

'Whispers of Love'

I am working on a special edition that showcases the origins of OGE (pronounced ohgee). OGE is named after my 3 beautiful grandchildren Oliver, Grace & Elise. With the help of my daughters, I thought it might be special to release a series of patterns relating to each grandchild. Each package will consist of a full outfit & a blanket. This is the first of the collection named after ‘O’ for Oliver, or as we love to call him ‘Our Ollie’.

**This blanket is completely reversible, and an intuitive knit. I am thrilled with the final result, I do hope you will like this design as much as I do.
