Make This Two – Color Blanket Design in Different Colors of Yarn

The best part about this crochet project is that it uses basic crochet stitches to create a soft, snuggly blanket with a beautiful texture. The two-color design adds extra visual interest, making it a wonderful addition to any space.

I love experimenting with colors that complement each other or opting for bold, contrasting shades. It’s one of the things I love about crochet. Seeing the colors come together as the beautiful blanket grows.

I made this chunky two-color blanket using two different color combinations. One uses a country blue paired with a whipped cream. The other uses a misty green paired with the same whipped cream yarn. However, this cozy blanket also looks lovely in a solid color.
