Midnight Diamond Blanket
This is a crochet pattern for a blanket made using tapestry crochet.
The blanket is made of squares which are joined together to form an attractive tile-like pattern.
The pattern includes full written instructions, comprehensive pattern notes, photos and a chart for making the blanket.
It would be suitable for an intermediate crocheter looking to try tapestry crochet for the first time.
The finished blanket, made with DK yarn, measures 88 cm by 113 cm. However, you can easily vary the size of your blanket by making more or fewer squares.
The pattern uses DK weight yarn although you could use any weight yarn. Aran weight yarn could also work well, for example.
To make the above sized blanket, I made 20 squares, each measuring around 20.5 cm across. I used the following yarn:
Stylecraft Special DK
5 x 100g balls in Cream
2 x 100g balls in Midnight
There are two pdf files for the pattern. One is with UK crochet terms and the other is with US crochet terms.
Crochet level: intermediate.
