Research: Magical Knitting

I've written before about the splendid knitting in Call the Midwife.  The final episode of Season 2 started out strong.
 The girls are knitting away on squares for a blanket.  If you look closely, you see that some of the squares are crocheted.  Bold choice.  I love the idea of mixing the two together in one blanket.
 Later, when all of their nerves are frayed, and they are trying to distract themselves from their worries about a dear friend, the midwives start assembling the blanket.




  Odd, it looks as though this "knitted" blanket is made entirely of crocheted granny squares!
 No matter, it will still keep the cold out.


And let's hope it can magically cure Chummy as well!
