One of my most favourite artworks of all time is Paul Klee's 1925 painting 'Alter Klang', which translates as Ancient or Old Sound. I adore the way the colours appear to pulse and visually move the eye backwards and forwards through the work.
I decided to have a go at crocheting it as a blanket, because the use of colour blocks lends itself very well to a simple granny square. The results certainly got people excited on social media, and it was a real delight to make! I used a range of Pato and New Fashion double knit yarns, taking Klee's layout of colours as a guide, and the blanket sold before I even completed it! I am now on the lookout for other paintings which could form the basis of a crocheted throw.
