Snowflake Blanket Pattern
I’ve been dreaming of making a snowflake blanket for so long, and it’s finally finished! ❄️ I started this project last winter but kept getting sidetracked with other fun ideas (you know how it goes!). Big projects like this take time, but I pulled it out this November, stuck with it, and now it’s complete—and I’m absolutely loving it!
With its easy-to-learn repeat, this oversized snowflake blanket is a joy to crochet, and I’m sure you’ll love making it just as much as I did.
One of my favorite things about crocheting mosaic designs is watching the pattern come to life—it’s like a game! Each row adds a new piece to the puzzle, and it’s so satisfying and fun to see it all take shape.
Can I Use The Inset Method Instead?
With inset mosaic crochet, each design row is worked over two rows. While you can adapt many designs to inset mosaic, it may slightly change the look of the original pattern.
I usually pick the mosaic method that best suits the design we’re creating. I know many of you love the simplicity of no tails—trust me, I get it! It’s tempting to want to use the inset method for everything.
Using the inset mosaic crochet method on this snowflake blanket would stretch out the snowflakes, altering their shape and making them look a bit off. It’s best to stick with the overlay technique for this one to keep the snowflakes looking just right!
Video Tutorial
In this detailed guide, we’ll walk you through how to read and follow an overlay mosaic chart, demonstrating the first few rows to help you get started on this beautiful blanket. You’ll learn the techniques needed to create stunning mosaic patterns, ensuring your project comes to life with ease.

Front Side – with smaller hook

Join Double Border:
Place front and back border together hiding all the tails inside. Trim tails so that they fit inside the border. When crocheting you will go through both the back and front side. RS facing with smaller hook, join yarn in any corner ch-2 sp with a sl st, (sc, ch 2, sc) in sp, 1 sc in the blo of front and the flo of the back, sc around the blanket in this manner joining the border, at each corner work (sc, ch 2, sc), sl st in first sc to join, fasten off and weave in ends.
Blocking
Immerse the blanket in lukewarm water with a small amount of dish soap, baby soap, or woolwash. Let it soak for approximately 25-30 minutes. After soaking, gently squeeze out excess water. To eliminate further moisture, wrap the blanket in a towel and press to absorb excess water. If needed, repeat with additional towels.
Next, lay the damp blanket out on blocking mats and carefully pin it to the desired measurements. While pinned, allow the blanket to air dry completely. Once dry, remove the pins to reveal a beautifully blocked and finished blanket.
