It's GREAT to be back! I've sure missed being active with the crochet community over the past 2 years. When I took an office job in 2019, I knew I would miss everyone but I knew I would not give up on designing. It's not as easy to accomplish everything that needs to be done working full time and taking care of my little family but they are my priority so being able to consistently release new designs had to be placed on the back burner. I still had my crochet time late at night when everyone went to bed so I've been able to design a LOT of new blankets and have them ready to start releasing 1 each month. Now that the big projects are out of the way, I'm hoping to design some smaller projects too. My daughter Brooklynn loves the boho style and asked me to design her a boho blanket. After designing the Royal Christmas Tree Skirt (found HERE), I knew I wanted to use some of the stitches from that to create a blanket. I fell in love with the post stitches connected with puff stitches! She's waited almost a full year to use this blanket and was Thrilled that I finally handed it off to her. I hope that you will enjoy crocheting this Boho Diamond Textured Throw as much as I did and I know that you'll receive Many, Many compliments!
