Finally, here is a less complicated monochromatic blanket that shows how shades of winter can be simple. However, even though it's simple, it's still beautiful and cozy. Better still, crocheting in the front loop and the back loop is all you need to know to make this wonderful piece.
The original pattern is available on Ravelry:

Snowy Field Crochet Blanket
"This snowy field crochet blanket is one of those easy crochet patterns that are a joy to make once you get started. With the half double crochet v-stitch pattern that is finished off with a front and back post double crochet. I just love how this blanket turned out. Years ago, I would have just made wide stripes all the same size; however, the more modern look is to have varying sizes of stripes. This crochet pattern does have repeating rows for an easy pattern, but I still think that this blanket has a very modern look to it. The crochet border is very easy to achieve with the front and back post double crochet. "
Mini Galaxy of Change
However, just because the blanket is a star-covered nap accessory, it doesn't have to be all serene and peaceful. In addition to the color choice (quite calm in this case) the star blanket can also have a pretty varied and wild texture, and this wonderful project shows you how. The texture transitions are particularly wonderful.
