From the blogger:"Sofa Sweet Sofa is a cozy crochet sofa throw that is quick to make and oh-so luxurious to use. This blanket is great to nap under, and it can also be shared. The yarn is soft and fluffy, thus making the throw warm and comfy. The giant shells give it a fun look and also make it quick to crochet.

Mountain Spring Blanket
Afghans and Blankets
The Mountain Spring Blanket features some really easy crochet stitches and is such a beautiful and simple design with bobbles. This is a 4 row repeat but it is actually really easy to follow and to remember and because this blanket pattern is made up of mainly double crochet stitches which makes it really quick blanket to crochet up even if it is done in Aran yarn. For the Mountain Spring Blanket I used scrap yarn in five different colors and then used a white yarn every 4th row and for the border. Perfect for beginners and for the more advanced crocheter.
