Method
The blanket is made from individual square motifs.
Each motif contains three main sections:

The sections are worked together into one square.
All motifs are blocked to the same size and joined in straight rows.
A simple border is added around the completed blanket.
Formation
Part 1 – Square Center
Using purple yarn, make a magic ring.
CH 3.
Work:
2 DC, CH 2
Repeat 4 times into the ring.
Join with SL ST.
This creates four basic corner spaces.
Round 2
SL ST into first corner.
CH 3.
Work:
2 DC, CH 2, 3 DC
into the same corner.
CH 1.
Repeat in every corner:
3 DC, CH 2, 3 DC
Join.
Part 2 – Purple Openwork Section
Continue with purple.
At the first corner work:
3 DC, CH 2, 3 DC
Across the purple section work:
CH 3, SC into next space
Repeat.
This creates the lace texture.
Purple Lace Row 2
CH 3.
Work:
3 DC into next CH space
CH 2.
SC into next CH space.
Repeat across.
Keep the section approximately triangular.
Purple Lace Row 3
Repeat the lace pattern while expanding toward the outer edge.
Use:
3 DC, CH 2
or
CH 3, SC
depending on the section.
Fasten off when the triangle reaches the required size.
Part 3 – Ivory Triangle
Join ivory yarn at the center corner beside the purple section.
CH 3.
Work DC stitches evenly across the section.
At the outer corner work:
2 DC, CH 2, 2 DC
Turn.
Ivory Row 2
CH 3.
DC across.
Increase at the outer edge.
Turn.
Ivory Row 3
Work:
DC, CH 1, SK 1
at selected points to create a subtle open texture.
Continue increasing until the ivory section reaches the same outer dimension as the purple section.
Part 4 – Pink Triangle
Join pink yarn to the remaining section.
CH 3.
Work DC evenly across.
At the corner:
2 DC, CH 2, 2 DC
Turn.
Pink Textured Row
Work alternating:
Front Post DC
and
Back Post DC
across.
This creates the raised textured appearance.
Pink Row 3
Work regular DC stitches.
Increase at both required outer edges.
Pink Row 4
Repeat another textured row.
Continue until the square becomes complete.
Part 5 – Squaring the Motif
Using purple yarn, work around the full motif.
CH 1.
SC evenly around.
At each corner work:
SC, CH 2, SC
Join.
Outer Frame Round
CH 3.
Work DC in every stitch.
At each corner:
2 DC, CH 2, 2 DC
Join.
Fasten off.
Final Motif Shape
Each finished motif should be a perfect square.
Block to approximately:
17–20 cm
Make sure all squares match exactly.
Part 6 – Alternative Triangle Arrangement
To create more visual movement, rotate some motifs before joining.
For example:
Square 1:
- Purple top left
- Ivory center diagonal
- Pink bottom right
Square 2:
- Pink top left
- Purple bottom right
- Ivory center
Square 3:
- Ivory top
- Pink left
- Purple right
This creates the alternating geometric effect across the bedspread.
Part 7 – Suggested Motif Count
For a small throw:
7 × 9 squares = 63 motifs
For a double bed:
9 × 11 squares = 99 motifs
For a queen-size bedspread:
10 × 12 squares = 120 motifs
For a king-size bedspread:
12 × 14 squares = 168 motifs
Adjust according to finished square size.
Part 8 – Arrangement
Lay all motifs flat before joining.
Rotate alternating motifs so the diagonal sections change direction.
Suggested arrangement:
↗ ↘ ↗ ↘
Next row:
↘ ↗ ↘ ↗
This creates the repeating diamond and zigzag effect.
Part 9 – Joining the Squares
Place two squares with right sides facing.
Using purple yarn, work SC through matching stitches.
Continue across the full edge.
Join squares into rows first.
Then join the rows together.
Flat Join Option
Place squares side by side.
Use SL ST through the back loops only.
This creates a neat raised line between motifs.
Invisible Join Option
Use mattress stitch with a yarn needle.
Sew through corresponding outer loops.
Pull gently every few stitches.
This creates a flatter seam.
Part 10 – Outer Border
Join purple yarn at any blanket corner.
Border Round 1
CH 1.
SC evenly around.
At each corner work:
3 SC
Join.
Border Round 2
CH 3.
DC in every stitch.
At each corner:
2 DC, CH 2, 2 DC
Join.
Border Round 3
Switch to ivory yarn.
CH 1.
SC around.
At each corner:
SC, CH 2, SC
Join.
Optional Decorative Final Round
Switch to pink yarn.
Repeat:
SC, CH 3, SK 2 stitches
around.
At corners work one extra CH-3 loop.
Fasten off.
Matching Pillow Cover
Make four motifs.
Arrange:
2 × 2
Join using purple yarn.
Add one or two border rounds.
For the back, crochet a simple DC rectangle.
Join three sides.

Color Placement
For a balanced look, use approximately equal amounts of:

Keep purple as the dominant framing color.
Use ivory to lighten the design.
Use pink as the soft accent.
Blocking
Block every motif before joining.
Lightly wet each square.
Pin into exact square dimensions.
Make sure:
- All corners are sharp
- Lace sections are open
- Textured sections remain flat
- All motifs measure the same
Allow to dry completely.
After assembly, lightly block the complete bedspread again.
Finishing
Weave in all loose yarn ends.
Trim excess fibers.
Check all joins.
Straighten the outer border.
Shape each motif by hand.
Conclusion
This purple, pink, and ivory crochet bedspread combines geometric patchwork construction with contrasting lace, solid, and textured sections.
The repeating square motif makes the design easy to resize for different beds.
The same motif can also be used for:
- Throws
- Cushion covers
- Sofa blankets
- Baby blankets
- Bed runners
- Decorative wall panels
For the best result, keep every square exactly the same size and rotate the motifs carefully before joining to preserve the geometric pattern.
