The Vita Blanket is a beautiful and unique tapestry crochet blanket covered with a scattered array of leaves.

Using a soft cotton DK yarn gives beautiful stitch definition.

The blanket could be used as a throw or even a picnic blanket.

The blanket is made with King Cole CottonSoft DK:
5 balls in Ecru 711
1 ball in Sage 1576
1 ball in Lime 1601

However, you could have fun playing around with different colour combinations.

The blanket measures 120 cm x 120 cm and is made with a 4 mm hook.

The pattern was first published in issue 80 of Crochet Now, which was on sale from 31 March 2022.
