The blanket is made up of large motifs, small motifs, triangular motifs, connections, and bordering. There are four types of small motifs and two types of triangular motifs. First, crochet the corresponding number of each type of motif separately. After completing them, connect the motifs, and finally crochet the edging around the outer edge in rounds.

The handcrafted measurements may have an error of 1 to 2 cm. Due to variations in individual tension, the size of the sample is for reference only.
Materials: Susan's Family Morandi 8# 

Hook: 4.50 mm crochet hook 

Note:  This pattern is making in Chinese crochet pattern terms, and the stitch name is written using American terminology. All measurements in charts are in cm.
