Raspberry Road Blanket
Also available as a free pattern . The paid PDF adds photo tutorials, crochet diagrams, and a print-friendly version.
The Raspberry road blanket is a great way to show off your gradient yarn. This blanket is worked in the round and this makes the gradient change even more gradual. The incorporated Jacobs ladders are a fun little addition to the star shape.

Customer reviews
This is a beautiful pattern to make, being so well written it is one I have recommended to many others and will be making several more!
easy to follow
I enjoyed crocheting this pattern. It was easy and relaxing to hook and the end result was very pretty. I made it as a gift for my friend's baby and she was really pleased with it. I have recommended the pattern to others wanting to make a baby blanket.
I found the pattern easy to follow and also the instructions for the ladder. I knit more than crochet, but didn't need to seek help from my crochet friends, as I have with some crochet patterns. I was really please with how it turned out. I used a Scheepjes Whirl - Melting Macaron. The expectant Mum was very delighted with it.
I absolutely love it. I have made a number of these now. They work up quickly, are fun to make and the pattern is well written.
