Here I share 20+ years of my crochet experience, tips and tricks. Blankets and flowers are my favorites!
Cherry Blossom Flowers are a powerful symbol of beauty, impermanence, and the fleeting nature of life. They represent renewal and new beginnings, especially with the arrival of spring. In many cultures, cherry blossoms also symbolize love, friendship, and the spirit of the samurai.
My love for Cherry Blossom flowers gave me the inspiration to create this flower throw blanket crochet pattern.
Cherry Blossom blanket crochet pattern is very simple : crochet flowers and connect them as you go. Make as many flowers as you need for the size of the blanket you are making, and then add a beautiful mesh blanket border edging. Choose any colors you like, the blanket will look stunning.
The crochet pattern is easy, with a lot pictures of every step.
