Hi, Thanks for stopping by,. here you can find the pattern for the C2C blanket I designed.
C2C is brilliant – my absolute go to for any blanket – as you get a great diagnol effect – just from making the blanket!
Who doesn’t love a bright C2C blanket?
I certainly do, and this one is just that. I made it with a lot of left over yarn from my stash.
It’s a great “non-thinking project” when you get your head around C2C, which if you aren’t familiar with – check out my handy video here.
The best way to think of C2C is, if you want a blanket that looks super complicated, as it’s diagonal lines, but is actually super simple – then head for C2C!
It’s worked on the diagonal, so even though the stripes look very impressive – you are actually just working one line of the blanket.

C2C Blanket Pattern
You will need approximately 1-2 balls of each colour
I used Turquoise, pink, lime green and white. (If you want to buy new yarn – head over here and buy: 1 ball white, and 2 of Pink, Turquoise and green – I can highly recommend Scheepjes Color Crafter.
4mm hook
Size – your finished blanket will measure 36 inches x 36 inches
To Make the C2C blanket
Use the normal (USA) DC Method, of chaining 6, work one DC in the 4th Chain from the hook, and 1 more in each further chain (= 1 block).
>>>If you need the video = you can watch here
Row 2: Chain 6, work one DC in the 4th Chain from the hook, and 1 more in each further chain. SS to the Chain 3 gap made above (from the ch6), and then make 3 further DC in this gap. (2 Block) – If I’ve confused you – watch the video above)
Continue increasing as per the chart below:

To decrease, make the final square of row 47 in pink as normal.
Now, SS back over the block to the chain 3 gap, and ch3, 3 dc in the gap (NO CHAIN 6), then continue the row, decreasing the other end too
It looks complicated – but it isn’t!
Start at the bottom right corner and make:
4 rows green
2 rows white
3 rows pink
2 rows white
4 rows bllue
4 rows green
4 rows blue
2 rows white
6 rows pink
3 rows white
4 rows green
6 rows blue
2 rows white
3 rows pink (Note this is the corner of the chart, so you are reducing on row 3 of the pink, and starting to make your blanket smaller).

2 rows white
6 rows blue
4 roes green
3 rows white
6 rows pink
2 rows white
4 rowsblue
4 rows green
4 rows blue
2 rows white
3 rows pink
2 rows white
4 rows green – finishing the blanket.
Here you go, one finished blanket, which is kind of an optical illusion!
You can if you want to add a border, I did, or USA SC all the way around, but it looks just a good left alone.
