cOLOURBLOCK FRINGE BLANKET

The Colourblock Blanket was my first crochet pattern, and its still super popular now! It is made of cluster stitches, which result in a pretty textured and reversible blanket. Initially it was designed as a Stash-busting project so you could use as close to exactly 3 balls of yarn as possible, but it has proven to be a well loved blanket pattern and had been made in all sizes and colour combinations. 

​

The PDF pattern includes the details to increase the size to however large you need it.

​

Suitable for: Beginners

​

You will need:

• 3 balls of Aran yarn

• 5mm hook

• Darning needle and scissors

• A piece of card to make the fringe​

Fiesta Blanket

I designed the Fiesta Blanket because I was desperate to work with one of the Paintbox Chunky Pots. I love how it turned out! The pattern is an attractive ripple design using the chunky pot at the ends. Its a lovely thick blanket, perfect for those cool autumn evenings.

This pattern will also work with other yarns too. You may need to adjust the hook size/yarn quantity to achieve the desired result.

​

The PDF pattern includes lots of pictures and a gauge to work with to achieve a cosy density.

​

Suitable for: Beginners

​

You will need:

• 1 Paintbox Chunky pot

• 4 Paintbox Simply Chunky

• 4.5mm hook

• Darning needle and scissors

• A piece of card to make the tassels

sPECTACLE bLANKET

The Spectacle Blanket is a unique filet design which uses a repetitive pattern to result in lots of different shapes. 

You can use any type or weight of yarn along with a suitable hook size, and the pattern includes the details to increase/decrease the size. The border is made of simple stitches, and with the tassels, it finishes it off beautifully.

Suitable for: Confident/intermediate crocheters

You will need:  

• Your yarn of choice

• Suitable hook size for your yarn

• A darning needle and scissors

• A piece of card for the tassels, and  a stitch marker may be useful​
