Easily create your own crocheted blanket

The principle of mix & match crochet is very simple. Depending on your skill level and taste, you first choose one of the 100 crochet patterns for your first blanket strip. Using this desired pattern, crochet a strip in the width and color of your choice. Repeat this process with additional patterns and colors until you have made enough strips for your blanket. Then sew the resulting individual strips together. Done! You have now created your unique and very personal mix & match crochet blanket. If you would like to expand your skills with this crochet book, that is also possible. Instructions for the basic stitches as well as practical tool and material information are included. Each of the 100 crochet patterns includes text instructions, a crochet chart, and a photo of the crochet sample. To gradually immerse yourself in mix & match crochet, there are five examples of finished blankets. These five crochet blankets with instructions invite you to crochet them yourself if you would like to first get used to the principle. Have fun with your personalized crochet blanket!
