Do you have a mermaid lover in your life that would go crazy over a mermaid tail blanket? You can make them one with this crochet pattern. This easy crochet blanket pattern would be great as a gift.

What makes this pattern different than all the other mermaid tail blanket patterns out there? The detail in the scales is unlike any other blanket out there. This is accomplished by alternating rows of a solid color and a variegated color, in addition to the stitch pattern used. This blanket also has a slit down part of the back to make it versatile for larger hips. It also won’t create quite the cocoon which may limit mobility.

This blanket comes in two sizes, large and small. The large is 56 inches long and 34 inches around. This is perfect for an older child or teen. The small is 47 inches long and 26 inches around. This is perfect for a small child or toddler. The pattern contains both sizes.
