Color Me Calm Throw

**Color Me Calm Crochet Throw** > **Mystery Crochet Alongs - STARTS 11 MAY 2026** Created with bright, bold colours and simple repetitive stitches, Color Me Calm was designed to be more than just a blanket… it is a space to breathe, rest, heal, and create peacefully one stitch at a time. This Crochet Along was born during a season of loss and grief — a gentle reminder that creativity can bring comfort to both the mind and the soul. Every round is intentionally simple, relaxing, and easy to follow, making this the perfect project to unwind with after a long day. **Difficulty Level | Skills Required** Adventurous Beginner to Intermediate Basic stitches in simple variations, simple repeats, color changes, shaping and finishing. You will need to know basic stitches like SC (single crochet) and DC (double crochet). Special stitches explained and provided in the instructions. **Materials** Hook – 4, 00 mm (G) Scissors Yarn needle **Yarn:** Elle Pure Gold Double Knit (100g / 284 yards / 258 meters) Weight – DK (11 wpi) 3: Light. – Approx. 1500 grams / 4260 yards / 3870 metes (15 Balls) The yarn count is approxmiate - I over compensate due to design and tension.  • A - Ivory (036) x 3 • B - Sunflower (106) x 3 • C - Bamboo (081) x 3 • D - Caberet (204) x 3 • E - Teal (007) x 3 - **NB:** for some reason the teal did not want to show its true color no matter what I tried in the photo with the balls below. But I have provided an image with the first few rounds to show the colors. **Yarn Substitute:** Using the same type of yarn throughout the project is recommended. The pattern suggests DK yarn (Weight – DK (11 wpi) 3: Light Worsted), but you are not limited to this type of yarn. Any yarn can be used if you take into consideration your sizing for the project will differ. **Tension | Gauge** Gauge is NOT necessary for this project to be perfect. However COUNTING your stitches will ensure a true success of this project! **Size** Final Blanket Size including border - Square = Approx. Length and width = 120 x120 cm (47 x 47 inches) Remember – if you use/choose a different yarn weight/hook size your blanket will be a different size! **Abbreviations: US Terminology** **PATTERN SUPPORT** • Full pattern support is available from the Joanita Theron Designs Facebook Group or/and Joanita Theron Designs Ravelry Group. • Please post a question in the group and remember to TAG me!
