Fast and easy blanket to toss over a chair or sofa for the holiday decor. Easy enough to do this with 4-ply worsted #4 yarn as well. The pattern easily repeats until you are happy.
 
The peppermint plaid colouring reminds me of candy so I have called this is the Crochet Candy Lane Christmas Blanket. The changing of the colours keeps me interested. 
 
A professional crochet diagram is included with the download. 
 
This uses only one ball of Caron Anniversary Cakes in the colour Peppermint Plaid. If you want it bigger, grab a second ball and keep repeating. Also, if you want to change the width, the stitch multiple is given.
