The blanket was originally designed for Deramores, it was in different shades of blue and my inspiration was taken from the stunning Lisbon Tiles. I have updated the blanket using only two yarns. 

The centres of the beautiful motifs are crocheted with Sirdar Jewelspun creating the stunning colour effects. The outlines are crocheted in calming solid colour.

This stunning blanket is a perfect make for autumnal evenings. It is crocheted in individual motifs which are then joined together using flat slip stitch joint to create the blanket. Very simple border is made around.
