FPF Heart Throb Blanket

For this FPF (Free Pattern Friday) you are in for a big treat! 

I had another pattern that I was going to post here today, but when I saw this 

gorgeous blanket, I had to change my mind!

Well-known designer and podcaster, Marly Bird has created a beautiful blanket, that is featured on the Red Heart free pattern website. 

When you click the photo above or HERE, you will be taken to Marly's blog, where not only can you find a link to the pattern, but also the backstory of this pretty blanket.

C2C fans will be thrilled to know that this design is crocheted using Diagonal Box Stitch!

The photo alone makes me want to crochet one for my Sophia!

What do you think of this unusual pattern? Does it make you want to try a C2C blanket where you change colors and follow a chart?
