The Diamond Plaid crochet blanket was designed because everyone loves plaid. It gives a sense of warmth and coziness especially throughout cooler months. Many people like to add a bit of plaid to their home decor for this reason.

I love the look, especially of buffalo plaid. However, I wanted my design to be slightly different from other designs already out there. So, I just twisted it to be in a tartan or diamond shape. I am obsessed with how it turned out.

I also added a border that is crocheted right into the design which I am obsessed with. The border just gives the blanket a finishing touch!
