This is such a fun pattern for a blanket, and the soft gray and sherbet orange complement each other beautifully. You'll have a blast making this crochet blanket, and you'll absolutely adore the final product as well.

Made one like this back in 1971 I still use it!

I want to make one of this kind. It looks very easy to make and very cozy. The colors used are very popular, grey and peach. I'm doing a grey/peach/white baby blanket now and the colors are just refreshing. The pattern is not the usual I guess but it's okay. I want to try this new pattern this time.

I have not made this yet but the instructions looks straightforward. Usually I do giant granny square blankets in a small circle in the middle and go from there. This is different and I have to make one. These blankets are great stash busters as well in the beginning and then you have to have more yarn as it gets bigger. They will always be popular though and they last. Thank you for the pattern.
