"Snow is Falling" Christmas Blanket Crochet Kit with Color Accents

Bring the winter spirit to life with the Snow is Falling Christmas blanket by CrazyCrochetCatlady. Using the mosaic crochet technique, you’ll create an elegant Christmas wreath featuring Christmas trees, ornaments, and a festive bow. In the center, you can choose between a star and the words “Merry Christmas.” This is how you crochet a special blanket that deserves a place in your home year after year.

Choose your own colors

Four colors that you choose individually: the main color, the pattern color, the color for the bow and berries, and the color for the star or letters. The sample colors are Stylecraft Special DK 1009 Bottle, 1001 White, 1246 Lipstick, and 1856 Dandelion. The sample colors are already preset for you, but you can customize them as you like.

In this composition, you can also add extra color to the bow, berries, and star or letters. The pattern includes written instructions with color changes for this purpose.

Package Contents

You’ll receive the yarn for the selected colorway of the blanket, which by default includes 14 balls of Stylecraft Special DK: 7 balls of the background color, 5 balls of the pattern color, and 1 ball of each of the two accent colors. You choose the actual colors yourself in the kit builder. The accompanying digital Crochet Pattern includes instructions and chart patterns for the various versions.

What are you going to crochet?

You’ll be working with an overlay mosaic crochet technique: alternating two colors per row, with single crochets in the back loop and double crochets in the front loop of the row two rows below. The pattern features a star or “Merry Christmas” in the center, instructions for both left- and right-handed crocheters, and both written instructions and chart patterns. There’s also a separate full diagram for digital use.

Using DK-weight yarn and a Crochet Hook of approximately 4 mm, the designer estimates the finished piece will measure about 110 x 135 cm. The final dimensions and yarn usage may vary significantly depending on your crochet style, the Crochet Hook you choose, and any border you add.

In addition to the yarn and the pattern, the following tools will come in handy:

• 4 mm Crochet Hook, or whatever size gives you the desired stitch ratio
• Stitch Markers
• Stopping needle
• Scissors
• Row Counter

You can easily add these tools & supplies as optional extras to your order for a Kit.

FAQ

Can I choose between the star and "Merry Christmas"?

Yes. The pattern includes both center motifs. The rest of the design is the same; only the center rows of the pattern differ.

Is this pattern also suitable for left-handed people?

Yes, there are separate written instructions and counting patterns for left- and right-handed people.

Can I choose all four yarn colors myself?

Yes. You choose the background color, the pattern color, the accent color for the bow and berries, and the accent color for the star or letters separately. The combination shown is a preset.

How accurate are the measurements and the specified amount of yarn?

These are guidelines. The designer notes in the patterns that the result can vary significantly due to crochet tension, even when using the same yarn and the same Crochet Hook. Therefore, it’s best to make a gauge swatch first.
