Vibrant, rich colors! The textiles of Latin America are full of them, and this blanket captures that same joyful energy.

This simple yet striking design combines bold color changes with just enough texture to keep the work interesting. The pattern is worked back and forth, changing color with every turn, and carrying the yarn up the sides — minimizing the need to weave in ends.

It’s a wonderfully flexible project — use as many or as few colors as you like, and it’s compatible with any yarn weight.

Skill Level: Confident Beginner

Finished Size: Approximately 44” × 50” (112 × 127 cm) after blocking

Whether you use bright tropical hues or soft earthy tones, your Latin Flair blanket is sure to stand out beautifully.
