Mud Cloth Inspired Crochet Blanket

This artisan mud cloth inspired crochet blanket throw was inspired by the patterns seen in ancient African mud cloth. Although this throw is not woven like traditional mud cloth fabrics, we love that we can enjoy and create gorgeous patterns with our crochet hooks.

In this video I will focus on the chart in the pattern to teach you how to do the stitches AND how to read a crochet chart or crochet diagram. The words for the pattern are also available to give instructions along the way as well.
