Bright Stripe Blanket Crochet Pattern

If you’re looking for a magic carpet, this afghan is as close as you’re going to get. The Bright Stripe Blanket has a magical color scheme. When you see it, it will transport you to fantasies of faraway places and adventures.

It has stylish tassels added to all corners of the blanket to give it a fun and stylish finishing.

This blanket is easy to make alternating between half double crochet and third loop half double crochet which gives it a really lovely texture. It works up quickly and is a relaxing pattern that you can kick back with.

The yarn I chose to use is machine washable and dryer safe for easy care, and the fibers make this crochet blanket soft and cozy without sacrificing durability. Not to mention this yarn comes in striking and vibrant colors, adding to the design of this blanket.

Do you love blanket patterns as much as I do? I put together a collection of my favorite Blanket Patterns & Video Classes into one amazing bundle. Check out the bundle here.
