Crochet Pattern Details & Key Features

The pattern features easy-to-make square motifs that are joined together.

The design is versatile and perfect for using up your leftover yarn stash, allowing you to combine any yarn and color to create a truly one-of-a-kind blanket.

The original blanket was made from a combination of different fibers, including wool, semi-wool and cotton yarn. This makes it a great project for intermediate crocheters or enthusiastic beginners.

Yarn & Materials

This crochet pattern allows you to use up leftover yarn. The crochet throw can be made from any yarn that holds its shape well and is not too elastic.

Various types of yarn were used to make the blanket shown in the photo, with a total consumption of 1094 g:

For sewing squares – milk-colored yarn – 40% wool, 20% bamboo, 40% acrylic.

For crocheting squares:

• pink-colored yarn – 40% wool, 20% bamboo, 40% acrylic;
• white color – natural sheep’s wool yarn – 100% wool – combined with thin bobbin semi-wool – 80% wool, 20% acrylic – in 4-6 yarns – purple, blue, beige and milk color;
• blue colored yarn – 49% wool, 51% acrylic;
• light blue yarn – 60% cotton, 40% polyacryl.

You can choose a similar yarn type to achieve the same look and feel, such as a Bulky or Super Bulky weight yarn. Ensure that the thickness is approximately the same, as this will determine the size of your square motifs.
