Kaleidoscope blanket: done :)
Goooooooooooood moooooorning !
Kaleidoscope is done….after all the joining and the edging stuff I am proud to show it to you in all its glory π
Enjoy …
160 little colorful squares joined with a very easy and beautiful method don’t you think? and it is a very very very fast method….pfffffff…so fast I joined all the squares in two days π
If you’re interested I’ll be very happy to explain it step by step with a graphic π
and make also a graphic pattern for the two edging rounds …
The blanket measures 130x85cm…It is crocheted with Nako Vizon a 100% acrylic yarn with a 4.5mm crochet hook…
Sarah, my daughter, is in love…. She slept with it yesterday even if it is 36 Celsius degree here (still in a very very hot summer days)
Hope you liked it too π
Have a colorful day!

that’s such a wonderful blanket, of course your daughter loves it, who wouldn’t? And I just can’t believe how quick you’ve finished it! Very, very good job!! π
Oh. My. GOSH!!! I knew I’d love it, but I really, really love it!!! What a fun and pretty blanket!!! The zig-zags between the squares and the scallop border are absolutely fantastic!!! Oh yes, please do share a pattern, thank you!!! π
What a beauty!! It’s so very well colour combinated and I love the edging and the joining method. Please do share. π

Que bonita ha quedado la manta y que rΓ‘pido has terminado, yo soy mΓ‘s lenta con el ganchillo. Me gustarΓa que compartiera el mΓ©todo rΓ‘pido y la frontera, siempre va bien tener ideas nuevas.
Un saludo.

Absolutely gorgeous π
Absolutely GORGEOUS!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful work. Sarah is a lucky girl! Ellyx
It’s beautiful, and I think the joining is a big improvement over straight lines (especially for connecting single-color squares) . The creamy zig-zags remind me of icing / frosting, for some reason. :o) No wonder your daughter is so happy with it!
I love it, i would love to see a pattern so i can make my very own straight away!! Really beautiful, well done!! x
Definately colourlicious and happy… a wonderful thing to make for your little one… my son is 21 and still insists on having a blanket that I crocheted for him on his bed!
So yes please to your directions for the “zig zag join” looks amazing.
Best regards
Helen
Your blanket is a beautie!:) Love the way you attached the squares together. Well done!

This blanket is beautiful, so colourful and the joining and borders really set it off! Aren’t your daughters lucky to have a talented mum like you!
