Sun to Sea Mandala Throw

**Sun to Sea Mandala Crochet Throw** The Sun to Sea Mandala Crochet Throw is a journey told in stitches and colour. It begins in the warmth of glowing sunlight — rich tangerines, soft golds, and earthy naturals — where each round builds with quiet rhythm and intention. As the mandala grows, the colours slowly cool, shifting like the day drawing toward evening, until the calm blues, greens, and gentle neutrals of the sea take over. This is a project about movement and balance, about slowing down and finding joy in the making — a reminder that every stitch carries you forward, from sun to sea. > This pattern is available as a Free > Crochet Along at the link provided. **Difficulty Level | Skills Required** Adventurous Beginner to Intermediate Basic stitches in simple variations, simple repeats, color changes, shaping and finishing.
