Shetland Wool Blankets in Advancing Twill

I've used advancing twill before for towels and wanted to try it with this next set of Shetland wool blankets. This project gave me a huge chunk of ideas that I can work with and use for a long time. It also stretched me mentally and just about knocked me out physically, which I love about weaving.

Some of my new ideas while weaving these blankets include a new Energy series of blankets (SH083), which I'll add to when specific items seem suitable. Another blanket is a new addition to the Autumn Storm series and it's a blanket that tells a story and also includes a felting experiment.

Here are six new blankets woven in advancing twill.
