The Springfrost Blanket has been inspired by the joy of early spring when the very first flowers begin to bloom after a long winter. I've chosen fifteen shades of Stylecraft Special DK to create a beautiful striped blanket, capturing the cool tones of a clear frosty morning and the delicate shades of early spring flowers.

The Springfrost pattern uses treble crochet stitches (UK terms) combined with treble spike stitches to create a beautiful stripe with an incredible, squishy, textured feel. The pattern is easy to learn - it's a simple two row repeat which is perfect for beginners or for those looking for some soothing rows to sit on the sofa with.

I chose seven colours to create a super-pretty border with a delicate white frosty edging to finish it off perfectly.

Every week when the Springfrost Crochet-A-Long was running through the start of 2023, I published a blog post to show the progress of my own blanket. I also shared lots of photos showing some glorious blankets in progress from the online Attic24 CAL community. I thought it would be helpful to list these blog entries here so that you can easily find them.
Now that the CAL has finished, I've created a single worksheet to give you the colour order for the stripes all in one place. I've put an image of it down below for reference, but you can also save/print a PDF worksheet by clicking on the following link >>
