Introducing my Crochet Fluffy Unicorn Afghan featuring the brand new yarn line called Bernat Blanket Brights. This is a 6 point star afghan that took me seriously 9 hours to crochet. Due to the thickness of the yarn, these types of afghans crochet extremely quickly.

I used the colours of the rainbow to inspire me. A crocheter said online to me about it reminding her of Rainbow Bright and then I was thinking unicorns from the Minion Movie as being a Fluffy Unicorn that Gru was trying to win for the girl. This yarn is so vibrant and definitely fluffy. It’s an afghan I would want to cuddle with myself.

This pattern is an adaptation from an existing pattern on Yarnspirations. The original pattern is called Bernat Star Blanket featuring the extra lovely Pipsqueak Yarn. Originally, I went into the project thinking it’s just a typical star but there is a slight variation which opened my eyes to realize this would be perfect for Bernat Blanket Yarns. Every other row, the space in the center between the points closes up. This means there’s not as many gaps. Typically in stars, we see gaps in the points and in the centre points.
