Making a blanket 🥰

So I’m frogging this blanket that I started last year. I didn’t get a chance to finish because I had only grabbed one cake and it was a limited edition color.

I got tired of seeing it sitting in the corner and decided to frog it and add it to my other cakes! I’m alternating each color 5/6 times before I switch over and so far I think I like it. something about that neon green strip is throwing me off though 🥹

The jewels and jolly was a new cake so I’m having that be my main color. Frosted fairytale was used for a bolero I made and another cake from a sweater I completed

... Read moreFrogging a blanket can be a surprisingly rewarding part of the crochet process. It allows you to rethink your project and combine yarns in new, exciting ways. For me, using the limited edition colors like Jewels & Jolly as a main highlight brought a fresh vibrancy to my work. Alternating colors every 5 or 6 rows not only adds textures but also gives the blanket a unique pattern that’s visually interesting. One thing I noticed while working was how small color choices, such as a neon green stripe, can affect the overall feel of the piece. Sometimes colors that seem perfect in yarn cakes might stand out differently when crocheted into the fabric. It’s all part of the creative process to experiment and settle on what feels right to you. Additionally, reusing yarns from past projects, like Frosted Fairytale which I used previously for a bolero and sweater, adds sentimental value and continuity to your handmade items. If you’re considering frogging a project, don’t be discouraged—it’s a chance to refresh your ideas and create something you truly love. Plus, sharing these experiences with communities under hashtags like #crochetfairy and #yarncrafts can connect you with friendly and supportive makers who understand the ups and downs of yarn crafting. Overall, whether you’re an experienced crocheter or a beginner, frogging and reworking a blanket is a great way to explore color combinations and improve your technique while making something cozy and special.

had to trust the process but this turned out adorable. for a BABY blanky i used 1 yard (of each fabric) and scissors super easy but can imagine this being tedious on a huge blanket. #blanketmaking #easydiy #craftideas #babyblanket #easycrafts
