Finishing

Fasten off and weave in all ends. Block to measurement, and enjoy keeping cozy with this blanket all season long.
Decorating with crocheted blankets becomes even more delightful when you pair your throws with other handcrafted home decor pieces! To create a warm and inviting space, try layering your blanket over a rustic wooden chair and adding a handwoven basket filled with Nutmeg Pillows nearby.
Crochet a coordinating Cable Pouf to use as a footrest while snuggling under your new blanket. Incorporate handmade ceramics or beautiful wall hangings to enhance the cozy vibe while showcasing your love for artisanal pieces.
By mixing textures and styles, your crocheted blanket will shine, making your home feel personalized and welcoming!
Cheers, and happy crocheting!
