Looking for a new favorite blanket?? Well, you’re welcome, because here it is. We fight over this blanket in our house and I usually win because I made it 😉
You can use any weight yarn with the coordinating hook but I highly suggest using chunky yarn (I used Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick in Moonlight which is a super bulky 6 weight yarn) Another good choice would be Bernat Blanket yarn because have you felt that?? Sooo squishy, soft and warm !
Anyways, this works up quick and you’ll love it forever and ever. The end.
An ad free PDF version of the pattern is available in my Etsy Shop for a small fee 🙂

Tassels
- Wrap yarn around a book or something similar 15 times. (I used a DVD case, short side) Cut one end and keep folded.
- Pull folded end through one corner of blanket halfway, pull cut end though and secure by pulling tight.
- Repeat on each corner of the blanket (6 tassels)
NOTES
- You can use any yarn with coordinating hook depending on the look you are are going for! The super bulky yarn I used gives is a warm and cozy feel while a finer yarn might make it look more polished. You will need to do more rounds using a finer yarn.
- Ch 2 at beginning of each round does not count as first stitch unless otherwise noted.
- The first stitch in the round will always be worked in the same stitch as ch 2.
- The last stitch will always we worked in the ch 2 join from the end of the last round
- Finished size using Wool- Ease Thick and Quick and a P hook is approximately 60 inches corner to corner diameter
