Motif Blankets in Stylecraft Chenille Chunky – Pattern 10249

This downloadable PDF crochet pattern from Stylecraft offers three distinct motif-based blanket designs, all worked in the gloriously soft Stylecraft Chenille Chunky yarn. Rated as intermediate in difficulty, the collection is a wonderful opportunity to explore classic crochet motif construction on a larger scale, producing cosy, tactile blankets with a luxurious velvet-like finish. Each design uses a palette of three coordinating colours to create bold, eye-catching results.

About Stylecraft Chenille Chunky

All three blankets in this pattern are worked using Stylecraft Chenille Chunky, a chunky-weight yarn sold in 100g balls. Chenille yarn has a distinctive pile construction that gives finished projects an exceptionally soft, plush texture — ideal for blankets intended for comfort and warmth. A single 8mm crochet hook (UK 0 / USA L11) is used throughout the pattern, making this a relatively quick project to work up given the chunky weight of the yarn.

Design 1 – Baby Blanket (Image 1)

The Baby Blanket is the smallest of the three designs, measuring 66 x 82 cm (26 x 32¼ inches), making it a perfect size for a newborn or infant. Its compact dimensions also make it an accessible starting point for crocheters building confidence with motif-based construction.

Colours Used

• Colour A – Bright White 5600: 2 x 100g balls
• Colour B – Candy Pink 5615: 2 x 100g balls
• Colour C – Apple Green 5614: 1 x 100g ball

The soft, pastel palette of Bright White, Candy Pink, and Apple Green gives this baby blanket a fresh, sweet aesthetic that is ideal as a handmade gift. The chenille fabric adds an extra layer of gentleness, making it wonderfully suitable for delicate skin.

Design 2 – Flower Blanket (Images 2 and 3)

The Flower Blanket is a larger, statement piece measuring 114 x 146 cm (45 x 57½ inches) — a generous size suitable for use as a throw or lap blanket. As the name suggests, this design is built around floral crochet motifs, which are joined together to form the full blanket. Working individual flower motifs and then assembling them is a classic and satisfying crochet technique that allows each motif to be completed as a small, manageable project before the larger whole comes together.

This design is offered in two colourways, giving crocheters the flexibility to choose a version that suits their personal style or intended recipient.

Colourway 1 (Image 2) – Rich Jewel Tones

• Colour A – Deep Purple 5608: 10 x 100g balls
• Colour B – Lilac 5619: 4 x 100g balls
• Colour C – Mint Green 5617: 5 x 100g balls

The combination of Deep Purple, Lilac, and Mint Green creates a rich, jewel-toned blanket with a sophisticated, vintage-inspired feel. The contrast between the deep purple background and the lighter lilac and mint accents allows the floral motifs to stand out beautifully.

Colourway 2 (Image 3) – Bold and Vibrant

• Colour A – Cobalt Blue 5611: 10 x 100g balls
• Colour B – Golden Yellow 5618: 4 x 100g balls
• Colour C – Emerald Green 5610: 5 x 100g balls

The second colourway pairs Cobalt Blue with Golden Yellow and Emerald Green for a striking, high-contrast result. This
