This gorgeous afghan by Lois Olson has amazing added half - motifs on the sides, which creates a super modern and fun effect. What's more, the snowflake - inspired pointed border and snowflakes in the center of each hexagon makes this blankie on the pictures below just the ultimate winter throw.

Christmas Snowflakes Afghan Free Crochet Pattern
Christmas is just around the corner and I have a quick and easy blanket pattern for you to make this holiday season: Christmas Snowflakes Afghan. You can adjust the size of this afghan and turn it into a bed spread or baby blanket by simply crocheting more or fewer hexagons. For this pattern, I used the granny snowflake hexagon for the blanket and a modified version of the dot border. I designed the blanket using aran (worsted) yarn and so it works up in no time. Change the colors to match any theme or color palette.

Snowflake Lace Throw
Can you crochet a blanket for everyone on your holiday gift list? With the free crochet blanket pattern for the Snowflake Lace Throw, it's a distinct - and beautiful - possibility! The Snowflake Lace Throw uses the negative spaces - the openings in the lace - to create a beautiful blanket that can be made in just 2 days using Super Bulky yarn! In just one weekend you can have a lovely statement piece of decor for your own home, or an heirloom piece to give as a gift to those you love. Lion Brand Heartland Thick and Quick is the starring yarn here, a soft, silky, 100% acrylic that will fly off your hook, in your choice of colors. Go neutral with Katmai or Acadia, or go bold and bright, it's up to you!

Granny Hexagon Afghan
Instead of the typical granny square afghan pattern, check out this Granny Hexagon Afghan, which uses hexagons instead of crochet granny squares. The fun shapes and patterns create an eye-catching design that will brighten up your home. Use this crochet afghan as a throw on your couch or for the warmth you desire in the winter around the fire. Keep it laying around during the spring months, too, since the hexagons create a floral look that is a reminder of the new life in springtime. This crochet granny square afghan would look stunning in any color scheme you picked.

Succulent Spring Hexagon Afghan
My love for making crochet afghans has grown a lot over the past year. I released a variety of styles in 2019, but I hadn't made a hexagon afghan before so I thought that should be next on my list of projects. The Succulent Spring Hexagon Afghan was designed while traveling to visit crochet friends a couple months ago. It ended up being the perfect project for the airport and plane rides as I didn't have to carry around a half finished afghan all at once. I packed the finished hexagons in my luggage and kept the pieces I was working on in my carry-on.
