Blues and greens in textured and windowed crochet pattern, 3D, Irish Sea Blanket or crochet throw pattern by Susan Carlson of Felted Button | Colorful Crochet Patterns

Irish Sea Blanket Crochet Pattern

This blanket makes me HAPPY! It is squishy and soft, but with this stitch pattern makes little breathable holes for a weather-versatile blankie!

And if you want to go to town with the colors--
go for it! You can even mix up the stripe width if you choose! I like providing options with my designs that let people use their creativity--and the yarn they have in their stash! (Saves money, right?!)

I made this baby-sized sample blanket with cotton, cotton blends and even a wool blend from my stash! But I wrote the pattern so you can make it any size you wish! I also designed it with only a border on the top and bottom edges because this stitch pattern makes really nifty sides that don't look wonky and don't "ask" for a border, anyway!

And did I mention that this baby has a terrific accordion-like stretch!? It is magical, I tell ya! Plus, the front and back look equally fab!

Thanks to my testers for doing such a wonderful job! This is what they said about the pattern...

"It is a lovely pattern, works up very quickly, and has a terrific texture."

"Love, love, LOVE this! The texture! The movement of the stitches! The border! Squeeeeeee! Fabulous!"
