This is a wonderfully novel idea – making a knitted playmat. My sons have one of those mass-manufactured mats with roads on it for playing with cars, however Teeny Tini has put love and imagination into the Finley Blanket, which is hand-knitted and uses no pattern whatsoever!

The lovely Belgian website Little Circus hosts a number of small-time designers of beautiful children’s things, so it’s well worth a browse. There’s oodles of swoonworthy items at this online boutique! I just love the Bu Blanket –
such a simple enabler of imaginative play, as well as a security blanket.

The Finley Blanket is currently equivalent to AU$280, and the Bu Blanket is around AU$55 plus shipping from Little Circus.
