C2C Desert Days Chair Throw Pattern
Wrap yourself in the warmth of the desert with the C2C Desert Days Chair Throw! Featuring majestic saguaro cacti scattered across a dreamy desert landscape, this pattern brings the beauty of wide-open skies, drifting clouds, and a glowing sun to life through crochet. Whether you love the rugged charm of the Southwest or simply want to add a unique, nature-inspired touch to your home, this throw is the perfect blend of cozy and artistic.
The Basics:
• Skill Level: Intermediate (Managing frequent color changes with multiple colors in the same row and knowledge of C2C/Diagonal Box Stitch is required. If you are unfamiliar with C2C or need a brush up, links to some of my favorite tutorials are included in the PDF).
• Yarn Requirements: Approximately 2000-2200 yards of worsted weight yarn (208 yards/100g each) in 9 colors.
• Finished Size: About 38” x 47” – perfect for cuddling in your favorite chair or as a thoughtful gift for someone who uses a wheelchair.
Why You’ll Love It:
• Desert-Inspired Beauty – Saguaro cacti, rolling clouds, and a glowing sun create a stunning landscape.
• Versatile & Cozy – Perfect as a lap throw, a statement piece, or a heartfelt handmade gift.
• Instant Download – Start crocheting right away with a detailed, easy-to-follow PDF pattern!
