About

The Miles of Tiles Blanket is a stunning patchwork throw made of simple colorblock granny squares and easy colorwork squares with a tile-inspired design. What a fun one this was to make — I really debated on whether I should add the tassels at the end, but I’m so glad I did! It brings the whole design together in a way I absolutely love.

This pattern is also beginner-friendly, with step-by-step photos for every single part of the pattern.

This design was originally made for my book, Crochet Retro Blankets in 1 Week. The book includes its matching pillow pattern, too!

Sizing

The standard blanket size is 40" (102 cm) wide and 56" (142 cm) long; this is the size you see in photos. There are instructions for customized sizing included.

Materials

Hook: 5mm or size needed to obtain gauge

Notions:

  • Tapestry needle

  • Scissors

Yarn: Worsted/size 4 weight

I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice to make this. I recommend using a similar acrylic or wool for your own project; you can find good substitutes on yarnsub.com.

Always make a swatch before beginning to make sure you meet gauge (also important so your pattern isn’t too big or too small) and are happy with the fabric created!

Pattern Notes

Abbreviations

ch: chain

dc: double crochet
