Janie Crow Indian Roses Crochet Blanket Pattern
Designed by Jane Crowfoot in a collaboration with West Yorkshire Spinners. The blanket was inspired by Jane’s trips to The Green Hotel in Mysore, India, and in particular some decorative tiles on a Victorian washstand found within the hotel.
The design uses a mixture of DK weight yarns and a crochet layering technique to achieve the 3D effect of the flowers. A repeated square motif with central flower are combined with half and quarter motifs to achieve the square shape of the blanket
