This blanket is a fairly simple one with the following skills needed: Slip stitch, chain stitch, single crochet, and double crochet. There are pictures that assist with stitch placement. This is a 6 row repeat blanket but most rows are just a row of single crochet.

I used scraps for the color rows but you could do the blanket with just one or two colors for instance a green and red with white or gold as a base color would be a striking Christmas blanket.

The blanket size can be customized and I wrote the pattern so that you can make it any size you want.
