This eye-catching graphic blanket brings back 1970s wallpaper chic with geometric lines and fun colorwork. Like the mood rings that were so popular in the 1970s, this blanket’s shape-shifting effect changes its optical illusion depending on which way you look at it!

This is an advanced beginner pattern. It’s easier than it looks because both colors are carried throughout the blanket and it uses only single and double crochet stitches. Pattern is written in US terms and includes explanations of all stitches and abbreviations. US and metric measurements given.

Finished dimensions are about 44 by 58 inches (112 by 147 cm) when using worsted weight yarn and a 5 mm hook. It’s a great size for a lapghan, stroller, car seat, crib, or tummy time play mat, or child’s afghan. This pattern can also be used to make a beautiful rug or towel.
