I chose Lion Brand Landscapes yarn for this project because it’s incredibly soft, and I think the variegated colors work perfectly for this stitch pattern. That said, feel free to use your choice of worsted weight yarn for your blanket.
Blooming Hues Blanket Sizing Notes
The Blooming Hues blanket pattern includes two sizes: 37” x 50” (Lapghan Size) and 48” x 60” (Throw Size). To adjust the size, be sure to chain in multiples of 4 plus 2 stitches, then follow the crochet pattern until your blanket is the size you want.

Size Adjustment: To adjust the width of your blanket, start with a longer or shorter chain. The pattern has a chain multiple of 4 plus 2 stitches. If you want to adjust the size of your blanket, chain in multiples of 4 and add 2 stitches to that. For example, if you were to chain 16, you would then add 2 stitches for a total of 18.
Make sure you keep your yarn needs in mind when adjusting the size of your blanket.

- The chain 1 does not count as a stitch.
