Shine Like Diamonds
Join-as-you-go diamonds results in no seams in this modular lap blanket. Since each diamond uses only a small amount of yarn, one printed ball will yield completely different colored diamonds for an overall patchwork look. The red corner of each diamond pops against the variety of printed colors. You can easily customize the size of the blanket by working more or fewer diamonds.
