A super simple crochet blanket, this Crochet Classic Victoria Wattle Blanket is now a free pattern here available on the blog!
Inspiration & Description & Process
This blanket is the first blanket that I’ve ever made, which is shocking, considering that I’ve been crocheting for years now!
Blankets have always been somewhat daunting to me, but I finally sat down and created my first ever blanket, this crochet gray Victoria wattle blanket! I’m now absolutely in love with blanket projects and you might see another one coming up very soon!
The blanket is the perfect cozy weight and the yarn also comes with beautiful colors that you can match and mix together! But I used the color : Heater Gray and Antique White for my blanket.
*P.S this is a great project to have on your hands while binging on Netflix!*
In addition, this blanket is super beginner friendly with only the basic crochet stitches such as single crochet and double crochet! Though I’ve also created a video tutorial of this blanket if you’re more of a visual learner! 🙂
