Waterlily Throw
"The Waterlily Throw is a circular afghan with lots of color and texture, ready for cozying up with this winter! And it’s a free crochet blanket pattern on Moogly! The Waterlily Throw was sort of a “doodling” pattern for me. I picked a color scheme and decided I wanted a round afghan… and just started crocheting, letting the stitch pattern develop as I went, listening to how the stitches and colors worked together. I was inspired by the Waterlily colorway of Red Heart With Love! These lovely hues create a beautiful palette - and changing them will lead to lots of different looks with this pattern, which is half the fun! I decided not to add a “different” edging - I really like the way it looks ending on the Color F round. However, this is a great last round to add your own special edgings or touches to too! And there’s plenty of each color left over to do just that. For more information, see: https://www.mooglyblog.com/waterlily-throw/"

Absolutely beautiful! I have always loved the unique look of a round afghan, for a change of pace. I have not yet had the opportunity to try it out for myself, and I think this mandala type pattern is a great place to start. Now, just one thing- it seems she used all individual colors for her afghan, but on the link to purchase the yarn it is just the variegate type. Maybe you can use that one as a little "cheat" so you do not have to weave in so many ends. Either way, it would make a stunning gift,
