Wrap yourself in the magic of autumn with the Vintage Petals Blanket crochet pattern — a flower blanket that feels like a walk through a golden woodland. Each hexagon blooms with softly layered petals, creating a beautifully textured design that’s as comforting as your favorite hot beverage on a crisp fall morning. Worked in bulky yarn, this quick and cozy project brings together color, texture, and charm in every stitch.

With detailed step-by-step instructions and helpful photo and video tutorials, you’ll have all the guidance you need to create a truly one-of-a-kind blanket — perfect for gifting, decorating, or simply cozying up at home. For those who love to personalize their makes, the pattern also includes tips for adjusting size and color, plus a handy coloring sheet to plan your design.

How This Blanket Is Made
This charming blanket is made with hexagon motifs. Each motif begins with a large center ring, into which you’ll create petals using a mix of single crochet, chains, and treble crochet stitches. Then, switching to a contrasting background color, you’ll work chains and slip stitches behind each petal, forming the base for a classic granny stitch hexagon. Motifs are joined in the final round using a join-as-you-go (JAYGO) technique.

Working with a thinner or thicker yarn may result in different gauge measurements, which will affect the Finished Measurements.

Gauge
Though exact gauge is not essential, for best appearance it should be close.
I used a K/10.5/6.50mm crochet hook. Select the hook size that gives the best appearance for your choice of yarn and your tension.
A significantly different gauge may require more or less yarn than listed.
