My first time to encounter this type of stitch the Super Cozy Crochet Puff Stitch Blanket. The color combination is cool, fun, you wouldn't imagine using it as a blanket. I wanna see this kind of finished product on the sofa in my living room or on the couch in my daughters bedroom. This will also make for a lovely Mother's Day present. I have yet to study the pattern closely to be able to appreciate this project more.
