What an amazing achievement by the South African crocheters!
Well done South-Africa!
67 blankets for Nelson Mandela Day has just set a new ‘Guinness book of world records’ for the world’s largest handmade blanket! The 3133 square meter blanket at the Union Buildings in Pretoria beats the old world record by more than 3 times.
The BIG blanket is not only setting a new world record, but this winter 21000 underprivileged South Africans will be snug and warm under one of these handmade blankets, all in the name of Nelson Mandela.
Cornel and Elsbeth went to see the BIG BLANKET and would love to share some of the blankets that caught their eyes.
They picked 67 blankets that they absolutely loved.
HERE THEY ARE:
AND THIS IS THEIR TOP 3:
May Nelson Mandela’s legacy of compassion, forgiveness, understanding and tolerance continue!
This is what South Africa is about.
