This blanket pattern is worked from the bottom up and uses a 9 row repeat to create the overall look.

Blanket size is crocheters choice as the starting chain is done in multiples of 3, and the blanket is finished when it reaches the desired length.

*** For the blanket in the picture, I used a starting chain of 176, and used approximate 2752 yards. Color changes were made on Row 4 of the pattern, and the border was done with the same stitch combination from Row 4. It fits on a twin bed from the bottom of the pillow to the foot of the bed.

I used Bernat Premium Yarn to design this blanket as it was what I had on hand, but any worsted weight yarn can be used.

I would rate this pattern Easy in pattern difficulty.
All the stitches used are basic crochet stitches, though skipping stitches, slip stitches, and creating cluster stitches is required.
A youtube link for a cluster stitch tutorial is included in the pattern.
