Bold C2C Blankets – Ideas and Free Crochet Patterns

Any C2C technique fans here?

We are going wild today! Bright shades, contrast, sharp lines, and geometric shapes. This is what this selection of patterns is about.

Easy and quick, corner-to-corner projects are such an important stage in every crocheting journey. Once you try this genius technique, you will certainly keep coming back to it over and over again. It’s not the easiest, but once you get a hang of it, you won’t want to stop.

In the corner-to-corner technique (or C2C), we work diagonally in little crochet squares out of double crochet stitches. These squares can be in any color you like, so you can literally treat them like little pixels. By strategic use of colors, you can make “pictures” that include letters, shapes, or colorful geometric patterns.

Corner-to-corner crochet allows us to create truly unique crochet projects, but also easily control the size of our pieces. Once you’re happy with the width, simply start decreasing. This way you can make a crochet baby blanket or a big throw blanket.

To make sure you understand the technique, take a look at video tutorials and try out corner-to-corner crochet patterns.

If you plan to spend summer evenings with a crochet hook, these patterns we have found will come in handy. Bold C2C Blankets are both energizing and so relaxing!
