Luxurious velvet yarn and modern crochet stitch work make this a timeless blanket that’s perfect for year-round use. Understated ribbing gives this crocheted afghan the look of knit and the comfort and quality of an expensive store-bought throw. Perfect for gift giving or to make as a special throw blanket for yourself.

Update: I just wanted to let you know that after use, I’ve noticed some loops coming out of the blanket. From talking with others, it seems this is the nature of the yarn. While I’ve taken a needle and thread to weave in the loops, it may just continue. Definitely consider this as a possibility before making the blanket.

This blanket is crocheted while holding two strands of yarn together throughout the pattern.
