Diamond Blanket Free Crochet Patterns
Three crochet projects: a vibrant diamond blanket with colorful patterns, a textured teal swatch, and a multicolored zigzag blanket.

Diamonds and rhombuses are an excellent alternative to traditional orthogonal squares, and consequently are a great addition to your blanket-making arsenal.  Although they may seem a bit more complex due to their odd angles, they are not any harder. As a matter of fact, they are easy enough for a beginner to attempt each of these blankets. Therefore, don’t be afraid and please enjoy these beautiful, artistic, and fun diamond blanket free crochet patterns.

Velvet (Ribbed) Diamond Blanket

To begin with, this project is made using the Ribbed Diamond Blanket pattern. This pattern is especially interesting, because it mainly uses texture to delineate the constituent diamonds from one another.

Prismatical Blanket Free Crochet Pattern

Blanks and afghans are usually made of squares or hexagons, but here is a different take on the panelled crochet blanket. Made of diamonds, it certainly is a wonderful piece. Indeed, coupled with color and the intersecting diagonal lines, this blanket is guaranteed to be a hit and a valued decorative piece.

Lastly, this diamond blanket uses the simple C2C technique to achieve a delicate, disjointed pattern of diamonds on a solid background. What’s more, the intermittent use of hollow diamonds further stresses the solidity of the background.

Diamond Stitch Baby Blanket

To begin with, the first baby cover in diamonds is a hemmed affair with wonderful color banding. In particular, the color transitions really make the otherwise gentle texture pop.

Lux Bamboo Baby Blanket

Next, here is another classic solution for a baby covered in diamonds. Without a doubt, the lovely crocheted edge greatly enhances the traditional diamond stitch. Moreover, the use of bamboo fibers enhances the sustainability of the product as well as giving it some additional, desirable properties.

The Bakewell Blanket

While you can play with colors, even a baby cover in diamonds designed for ombre yarns will work well in monochrome. However, the color gradient here is just fabulous. That said, a little caveat is that this pattern is written in UK terms, so you need to brush up on your translations if you don’t live there.

Following on, here is a little adaptation of The Bakewell Blanket by Stephanie with a beautiful, colorful edge. In particular, I appreciate the sharp transition from the base teal to the multi-hued edge: yum!

Diamond Stitch Baby Afghan Free Crochet Pattern

The diamond stitch is a great technique because it allows the crocheter to make a blanket that has the appearance of being light and airy, but that is still substantial enough to wrap a baby in. With the addition of the colors, this is truly a baby blanket for those with discerning hippy tastes. Moreover, the project is easy and works quickly, so it can even be attempted by those of lesser skill.
