This gorgeous, queen-size blanket features a lustrous mosaic of colors, textures and floral patterns such as stylized leaves and lotus flowers, among other classic crochet stitches. My first attempt at this stitch-along took me three months, and many tries until I arrived at the color combinations and gradients of red, orange, mauve and gold you see here. I have since made another version in sheens of turquoise, greens and gold, and would love to continue exploring blues and purples. What colors would you want to come home to in YOUR living room? Bright, bold, or quiet elegance - this blanket makes a statement.
