About This Field of Daisies Crochet Blanket Pattern
This Field of Daisies blanket is made from modular flower motifs joined to form a colorful throw. The pattern includes color layouts for six motif variations, step-by-step motif rounds, edging and corner flower pompoms for a playful finish. It's an ideal project to use up scraps or play with seasonal colorways.
The modular motifs are quick to make and easy to assemble through the back loops for a seamless join. Detailed assembly diagram and finishing instructions are provided for consistent results.
Why You'll Love This Field of Daisies Crochet Blanket Pattern
I absolutely love this pattern because the repeating flower motifs are both soothing to crochet and endlessly satisfying to arrange into the final blanket. I enjoy how the color combinations pop against each other, creating a lively patchwork effect that brightens any room. The construction is modular so you can crochet motifs in small batches and easily join them later. The corner flower pompoms are a charming detail I always look forward to adding because they give the blanket personality and a handmade finish. Sharing this pattern has allowed me to experiment with colors and teach simple joining techniques to newer crocheters.
Switch Things Up
I love how easy it is to customize the color palette for this blanket; try a monochrome theme or muted pastels for a softer look.
Want a bolder statement? Use high-contrast brights for the flower centers and background squares to make each motif pop.
I often change the yarn weight and hook size to create a larger, chunkier blanket; bulky yarn with a larger hook gives a cozy throw.
To make a mini version for a cushion or baby blanket, switch to sport weight yarn and a smaller hook for tiny motifs.
I sometimes embroider small details onto the flower centers to add texture and unique personality to each motif.
Swap the corner pompoms for tassels or small crocheted roses if you prefer a different finish at each corner.
I recommend laying out completed motifs on a large surface to audition color placement before joining to get a balanced overall design.
You can mix in solid-color motifs at intervals to create a repeating pattern or border focus within the blanket.
Try joining motifs with a contrasting color join for a graphic grid effect, or use an invisible join for a seamless patchwork look.
I also like adding a wider border in a single color to frame the blanket and give it a finished, professional look.
Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them
✗ Skipping the color change join can create loose or messy joins; secure color changes by joining with slip stitch and weaving in tails immediately.
✗ Not counting stitches after each round leads to uneven motif edges; count your stitches at the end of each round to ensure corners and sides work out correctly.
✗ Pulling yarn too tight when making petals or clusters causes a distorted motif shape; maintain even, relaxed tension and adjust yarn tension as needed while working petals.
✗ Failing to stuff the flower pompoms lightly makes them collapse or look flat; stuff gently before finishing the last petal so the pompom has a rounded shape and seams close neatly.
