Dahlia Blanket Pattern

Inspired by the patternwork and colourplay of patchwork throws, the delightful dahlia deconstructs a simple square motif to create a fantastic mosaic blanket. The blanket is worked in four modules of a simple square motif worked in three different sizes. Crocheted in beautiful soft cotton, this blanket is light and airy – perfect for a lazy spring or summer picnic, but warm enough to wrap up in as the weather turns cooler.
