Unique and Modern Crochet Blanket Patterns
Urchins and Limpets Blanket
The background motifs of this blanket remind me of sea urchins, and the cheery centers remind me of limpet shells. In the background motif, the single crochet sections increase every round, and the chain spaces remain the same. In the small circles, the chain spaces increase with each round, and the single crochets stay the same. It’s a simple concept that, nonetheless, creates a lovely, cozy blanket. Any other combination of neutral background and pops of color would work well. Or change the feeling altogether and use a deep burnt orange as the background and stone gray, charcoal, bottle green, and navy for contrast. Free pattern here.
