This blanket consists of circular motif, octagonal motif, triangle motifs,  sewing and edging. First, crochet the circular motif and the triangle motifs separately. Once completed, we'll crochet the octagonal motifs around the circular motifs. Then, sew the triangle motifs onto the corresponding areas of the octagonal motifs. Finally, we'll crochet the edging along the peripheral.

Part 1 Circular motifA​ 01' 00'' ​(Part 1)
