Coral Story Blanket

Coral Story Blanket by LillaBjörnCrochet

Project Overview

The Coral Story Blanket is an intermediate-level crochet blanket design created by LillaBjörnCrochet (designer Tatsiana Kupryianchyk). This downloadable PDF pattern is ideal for crocheters looking to create a colorful, multi-hued throw blanket using a combination of complementary yarn colors and textured stitching techniques.

What Is Being Made

This pattern produces a finished blanket or throw, designed as an original LillaBjörnCrochet creation. The blanket features a coordinated color story using four distinct yarn shades, making it suitable as a decorative home accessory, gift item, or personal project.

Yarn Materials and Specifications

The Coral Story Blanket uses Scheepjes Our Tribe yarn, a premium blend composed of 70% Merino Superwash and 30% Polyamide. This fiber combination provides durability, softness, and easy care properties. The yarn is classified as 4-ply weight, offering a versatile thickness suitable for blanket construction.

• Yarn A: Scheepjes Our Tribe 884 Iris Garden – 8 balls (420 meters per 100g ball)
• Yarn B: Scheepjes Our Tribe 965 Felted Button – 1 ball
• Yarn C: Scheepjes Our Tribe 966 Miss Neriss – 1 ball
• Yarn D: Scheepjes Our Tribe 963 Haak Maar Raak – 1 ball

Crochet Stitches and Techniques

The Coral Story Blanket employs fundamental and intermediate crochet stitches to create texture and visual interest. The pattern utilizes chain stitch (ch) for foundation and structural elements, and treble crochet (tr) as a primary stitch for building the blanket fabric.

An advanced stitch technique featured in this pattern is the front post treble crochet (FPtr), which creates dimensional texture by working around the post of stitches from the previous row. This post-stitch method involves yarn over, inserting the hook from front to back to front around the designated stitch post, producing raised, three-dimensional effects that add visual depth and tactile interest to the finished blanket.

Difficulty Level and Craft Information

Rated as an intermediate difficulty project, the Coral Story Blanket is suitable for crocheters with foundational skills who are ready to expand their technique repertoire. The incorporation of post stitches and color work requires attention to detail and familiarity with standard crochet abbreviations and methods, though the overall construction remains accessible to advancing crafters.
