If you are looking for an original blanket for your sofa or bed, you have to make the Plaid Garden.Most crocheters find this pattern fun and addicting. Believe it or not, it is not hard to make. In fact, it works up pretty quickly with repetitive and easy stitches. It´s worked from side to side, creating the openwork motifs. The lower part is finished off with clusters and tassels. You need to know chain, single crochet, double crochet, puff stitch and crossed double crochet.

The original plaid is worked with cotton and linen, but its wool version is also suitable for Winter.

The pattern is a pdf document that includes written instructions, charts, photos and a step by step video tutorial (audio in Spanish, but easy to follow).

Technique: Crochet

Level: Intermediate

Measurements: It is a plaid size measuring approx. 44” x 47” (112 x 120 cm), excluding tassels.

Materials: If you don´t live in Spain, you will not find Rubí Lino Roll. But don´t worry! You can use a different thread. You need approximately 1400 yds / 1275 m (17 skeins – 50 g) for the same size. In cotton, I recommend you Muskat by Drops and in wool, Craft lover by Katia Yarns. Both could be a good option. Note: keep in mind that using another material will vary the size of the project.

Other notions: Tapestry needle, measuring tape and scissors.
