Winter Lake Crochet Boxed Block Stitch Blanket

"This winter lake crochet boxed block stitch blanket is perfect for chilly nights and cozying up on the sofa. An exquisite blanket is the result of a delightful blend of vintage stitches and two skeins of yarn in different hues. Imagine soft blues flowing into dark blue shades reminiscent of serene winter lakes, accented with a touch of dark navy blue. The result? A classic yet fresh look that's perfect for chilly evenings by the fireplace. When working this pattern, I carried the yarn up the side making switching the yarn colors every other row easy. Very few yarn ends to weave in with this large blanket. Boxed Block Stitch Blanket "
