Customization Ideas for Your Peacock Pretty Blanket

Make your Peacock Pretty Blanket one-of-a-kind with these customization ideas:

1. Experiment with Color Patterns

Use colors that suit your personal style or match your decor:

• Gradient effect: Start with dark shades in the center and work outward with lighter shades for an ombré effect.
• Monochrome: Use only shades of blue or teal for a cool, toned-down look.
• Rainbow peacock: Mix additional colors like yellow, orange, or pink to create a vibrant, rainbow-inspired blanket.

2. Try Different Motif Shapes

Use variations in the motif shape to add interest:

• Hexagon motifs: For a unique twist, make hexagon shapes instead of circles.
• Square motifs: Work each motif into a square by adding additional rounds, making joining easier and more uniform.

3. Add a Border with Fringe or Tassels

Adding a border or tassels can give the blanket a finished look:

• Fringe: Attach fringe in alternating colors along the edges for a boho look.
• Tassels: Add tassels to each corner or the blanket's short ends for a decorative finish.
• Lacy edging: Crochet a lace border using a shell or picot stitch pattern for an elegant touch.

Keep your blanket looking beautiful with proper care:

• Hand Wash: Use mild detergent and cool water.
• Dry Flat: Lay flat to dry to maintain shape and prevent stretching.
