Bright rainbow-colored hearts dance across a crisp white background, creating a cheerful design that's perfect for any age. Even though this blanket looks fancy, it's simpler than you'd think! The top and bottom sections have colorful hearts made using tapestry crochet, while the entire middle of the blanket is made up of double crochet stitches without any color changes. This means you'll have relaxing sections to crochet, helping you enjoy your project even more. If you've never tried tapestry crochet, don't worry—this is a great pattern to start with!

My design shows a cheerful white background with bright rainbow hearts, but you can choose any colors you love!

The possibilities are endless, making this pattern perfect for anyone who loves putting their own spin on crochet projects.
