How to Make a Crocheted Peacock Feather Blanket

By 36 Comments

peacock-blanketWhen I first started learning crochet, I was trying to pick up most of it just following pictures and diagrams, and it was so difficult. I had a hard time understanding how to get from one diagram to the next without being able to see it live. But now there are tons of awesome crochet tutorial videos on YouTube! This has finally given me what I need to make real progress in my crochet journey.

Recently I have wanted to make a more elaborate project with more colors than I have tried using in the past (most of my projects have been limited to just one or two colors). And I found this video for crocheting a peacock motif:

Video tutorial on how to crochet the motif.

It is really easy to follow. In fact, I have already created my first one! Now I just need to make a bunch more and connect them all together to make something really cool. There is so much that you could do with this. A bunch of these connected together would make a beautiful blanket or a gorgeous shawl. I’m still not sure how to connect them, but I have faith that I can figure it out if I just work at it (and maybe find another tutorial) I have found a couple of free and paid patterns on Ravelry and Craftsy. Anyway, check out the video and enjoy the tutorial here you’ll find her written instructions on peacock motif pattern. Be sure to share your creations with us in the comments section. I am so excited to see what all of you make! Maybe I will find some inspiration for my own peacock projects!

    • It should be a bit simpler than granny squares. For the pattern: bet if you visited your local yarn shop they would either have a copy, could order it, or even print it out for you Debbe D'Abundo!Or if you have access to an iPad or tablet (even a smart phone /cell phone) you can download the pattern to your device via Ravelry.com (link to the pattern is in the article)I use an app to organize my patterns called "Patternism" (which has a row counter built in for each seperate project!). I highly recommend this method and app. It allows me to take multiple patterns anywhere I go (and no paper waste!!)

  8. Why is your site requiring a driver update for version 10 when no other site is requesting one. Are you an affiliate for the driver product? Thanks

  11. My only problem is that the tutorial is not the same peacock feather motif used in the blanket photos. I may be able to wing it, but I can't use patterns/instructions. There must be something wrong with me, but the only way I can learn is video or in person.

  21. Would you please give more detail on how to join the ovals to the center area. For example: is each oval sewed on separately? What kind of stitch is used? whipstitch? It looks like on the picture that the outside edge is single crochet. If not, then what. Is the outside edge a separate operation from joining each oval. thank you very much. Susan Whitehorn
