Continue pattern as written.Įach color fade section in the pattern involves carrying a piece of yarn that you’re not currently using behind the working piece of yarn. Using the new yarn color or the one that you’ve dropped and are picking back up again, pull the new yarn through the last two loops on the hook instead of the original yarn color (see below right). At this point, you should have two loops on the hook (see below left). Using your old color, complete the first two steps of a SC: insert hook into the stitch or gap and pull up a loop. The color that you’re supposed to be crocheting with during each section of the pattern will be designated in bold at the beginning of the instructions for each row.Ĭolor changes are completed during the final portion of your last SC of the old color. This pattern is written using US Crochet Terminology.

I may be a little partial, but I have yet to see a bad color combination, so feel free to get creative! If you need ideas, google “color palettes” and prepare to be inspired by combinations for every season, holiday, sports team, Hogwarts house, you name it! We’re talking: if you can do a single crochet and a chain stitch, YOU CAN MAKE THIS BLANKET. It’s undeniable–I’m addicted to the moss stitch, and the Cameron Blanket is the perfect creative outlet for all my colorful ideas. And as soon as this Winter weather started to ease up… yup! You guessed it: I made the Easter-inspired beauty that you see at the beginning of this post.

And then my friend had a baby and I wanted to make a blanket that matched her nursery–so I made one. So I made one! And then I wanted a Christmas blanket–so I made one. But before I knew it, Fall was over and I wanted a winter blanket. It accented the bench in my front entryway perfectly (check out the picture at the end of this post for proof… it’s lovely!). The moss stitch created a gorgeous, loose, and light texture that allowed me to whip up a fabulous, decorative throw blanket in less than a week. I scoured patterns all over the internet to find the perfect design, but it wasn’t until I saw my friend Cameron’s crochet project using the moss stitch that realized a simple combination of moss stitch and color fading would be absolutely perfect for my Fall-colored blanket. Happy Spring, fiber friends! Last Autumn, I saw the most gorgeous Fall-inspired color palette and I knew instantly that I needed to make a blanket using those colors.
