➜ Point yourself toward your first colorwork blanket

The Arrow Crochet Blanket is great for anyone wanting to try colorwork. The easy stitch repeat and fun design make it enjoyable at any skill level, and the clean, modern border finishes it off beautifully.

It’s easy to adjust to any size, so make it a baby blanket, a throw, or anything in between. It’s free on my blog too.
