Rose Bouquet Blanket

A heavier, flowery blanket with a lacy leaf motif in the center, and bouncy rose flowers on the edges. This blanket is soft, mid weight, that is best in dark or light greens with fun rose colors as bright (or pale!) accents. Make as big as a bundle of flowers as you want, to make a perfect present for Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day, Birthdays, or for anyone who loves flowers. (Especially the kind that won’t ever wilt!) All my patterns assume a basic knowledge of crochet techniques, and any special stiches used will be explained as needed. This pattern is: Intermediate Level. This is not a mindless project, though it does have a nice rhythm after you get into the swing of it. It should lay flat and is worked in the round, with a “right” and “wrong” side. For this pattern, I used Super Saver Ombre in Green Apple. You should be able to complete a small version of the blanket with just one skein (482 yards), though I also used Classic Soft Loops and Threads for the leaves in the pictured example. It took about 200 yards of various Red Heart Super Saver colors to make the roses.
