A luxurious blanket that looks amazing and is fun to make!
The use of post double crochet stitches means that there is (almost) the same pattern on both sides.

The pattern has full written instructions and a chart - actually 2 charts. I have made one that shows each stitch as it is made and an “overview chart” where you see the pattern repeat from the right side.

In the pattern there is a photo tutorial for the post double crochet stitches and you can also find videos on my youtube channel.

I have made it in a classic wool, that will last a lifetime, but if you are not keen about wool, you can use cotton or acrylics.

The pattern is available in english (US terms) and danish.
