Vintage Waves Crochet Blanket


I started this blanket last winter, but it got pushed to the back burner over the summer as crochet projects normally do. I picked it up again last week since the weather has been getting colder and now it's finished!


I started it so long ago that I can't even remember the pattern that I used. I *think* it was by Redheart. Anyway, I chose neutral colors so that it would be versatile and classic. Plus, my living room is currently brown and creme. :)


I made it larger than a regular afghan so that it could be used as a blanket. I worked hard on it so I wanted it to be functional! Anyway, I'm glad it's finished so now I can move on to Christmas and baby girl projects. :)

Have you been crocheting/knitting lately?

  1. That looks lovely, I love the wavey pattern - I tried to make one similar but it ended up being really wonky along the edges! I'm currently crocheting a star garland for hanging at Christmas!

  2. Do you have a pattern reference? I have one blanket like this and I love it, would love to have another one.

    1. I think if you go to Redheart and search for wavy crochet a few patterns should come up.
