The Crochet Cozy Harvest Sampler Throw Blanket is an intermediate friendly free pattern using a few stitches to create a variety of textures.

Design Inspiration

Growing up autumn was a big time for my family. My siblings and I all have fall birthdays and, of course, two major holidays occur during this time. As with many families, one of our traditions was the annual pumpkin patch visit. We’d have amazing fun picking out our special pumpkins and running through the corn maze. This year we got to pass on the tradition to our own little pumpkin. This cozy crochet blanket is reminiscent of the corn rows and pumpkins with sparkling black added to bring it together.
