Striped surcote success!

[sister_raphael]

My stripey 14th century surcote was a huge success!

So warm and snuggly and made from a 1950s bed blanket which was over-dyed! It was originally green and white but I over-dyed with a blue.

I've had it in my Work In Progress pile for years and earlier this year had it in my sale pile but when no one was interested, I had a rethink, and decided to finish it. It's not long like my others, and my plan was to make it my muddy days and early morning dewy grass toilet run surcote, and it was perfect for that!

I'm so pleased with this!
