This simple pattern includes instructions for 6 different blanket sizes, along with yardage and specific color schemes for each size.

There are pluses with working with bulky yarn and this blanket is one of them. This blanket is good if you are fairly new to crochet and it will work up quickly. Who does not need another blanket. Next your friends will want one. Thank you for the pattern.

I love the color scheme, this white green and gray Soft Granite Blanket. There's a calming effect that you feel as soon as you see the green color in the whole blanket. This blanket will be a perfect housewarming, or house blessing gift. The hostess will surely love this hand crafted master piece.
