There are two ways to make this blanket: tapestry crochet or intarsia crochet. Choose whichever method you prefer! In tapestry crochet, we use just two yarns, switching back and forth between them as needed, and crocheting over the color we are not using to hide it within the stitches. In intarsia crochet, we crochet with several colors of yarn, using a separate ball of yarn for each section of color.
