About this collection
I do not believe in rushing the process. Whether it is the delicate floral work on a Lydia blanket or the dense, colorful layers of a Persian Tiles design, every blanket takes time to create. I use durable, easy-care yarns that hold up well over years of use, ensuring your blanket stays as cozy as the day you brought it home.
When you choose a handmade crochet blanket, you are opting for something that stands apart from mass-produced home goods. My process, which I call 'ek dum araam se' (really calmly), ensures that every stitch is placed with intention.
My Approach to Crochet
I primarily work with high-quality acrylic blends and knitting cotton. These materials are chosen specifically for their longevity and ease of maintenance. You can machine wash them on a gentle cycle, making them practical for daily use on your sofa or as an extra layer on your bed.
I utilize advanced techniques like JAYGO (Join As You Go) for blankets that require complex assembly, such as Persian Tiles or Persian-inspired geometric patterns. This method not only creates a stronger structure but also reduces the number of loose ends that need to be woven in, giving the piece a cleaner, more professional finish.
Customization and Sizing
Whether you are looking for a baby blanket (36x36 inches) for a newborn gift or a larger lap throw (50x60 inches) for your living room, I tailor the scale and color palette to your needs. If you see a style you like but want it in different colors to match your home decor, just let me know. We can discuss your preferred tones, whether you want high-contrast brights or soft, muted neutrals.
Care Instructions
All my blankets are blocked before delivery. Blocking is a crucial step where I reshape and flatten the item to ensure the pattern is clear and the dimensions are accurate. While the yarn I use is durable, treat these items with the same care you would a wool sweater—gentle cycles and air drying will keep the textures looking crisp for years.
