Crochet Pattern for an Axolotl face Tapestry / Blanket. This pattern comes with both a graph and written directions.

All single stitch crochet using the tapestry crochet technique (carrying yarn)

You will need 3 skeins of water (A), 1 skein of black (B), 2 skeins of red (C), 2 skeins of pink (D), 2 skeins of light pink (E) & 2 skeins of hot pink (F) to complete this pattern. This is assuming a medium weight yarn with a skein length of about 350 yards/skein.

I recommend carrying all of the colors except for black (B) through the entire pattern to keep it even. I would only carry black (B) in the sections where the eyes are. You can do this by dropping the yarn at the end of the eye and coming back for it when you are back to crocheting the eye again. I have videos that show you what I mean. If you have any questions please reach out
I recommend a medium weight (worsted weight) yarn with a J sized hook. The tapestry should come out a little over 4 feet wide (when crocheted with a J hook and medium weight yarn) This pattern can be repeated and sewn together or combined with other patterns (most of my other patterns are also 150 stitches wide) to create a blanket. A border can also increase the size and give the project a more finished look.

It is all single stitch crochet. In order to make this blanket you will need to know how to carry yarn (there are great Youtube videos that can teach you how to do the Tapestry Crochet Technique. I highly recommend trying a small simple pattern to practice carrying yarn before attempting a larger project. Carrying yarn gets more difficult as you add more colors.

150 stiches wide by 108 rows tall
