Football Sports Blanket
Score big with this football-themed crochet blanket pattern, perfect for sports fans of all ages! This design features a bold football as the main focal point, framed by a background of a classic football field. Whether you’re gifting it to a football-loving friend, making it for a child’s sports-themed bedroom, or creating the ultimate game-day accessory, this blanket is sure to be a winner.
The pattern uses my signature color-changing technique to create clean lines and detail. The result? A professional-looking design that’s as fun to make as it is to snuggle under. If you are new to crocheting color changes and feel a little intimidated, I offer a full course on exactly how to work my graph blankets and encourage you to check it out. It has over 3+ hours of video instructions and practice projects I’m sure you will enjoy. Find the course information here: https://sweetpotato3.com/changing-colors-online-crochet-c...
