A bold, graphic blanket inspired by the iconic Tetris game

Bring a touch of nostalgic fun to your crochet with the Tetris Blanket, a striking blanket made from colourful squares arranged in a playful Tetris-style layout. Inspired by the classic game we all remember, this design turns simple crochet squares into a real statement piece that is as fun to make as it is to admire.

The clever colour placement and block design were created by Julie, with the pattern brought together and refined by Anja for Ophelia Talks Crochet. The result is a modern, eye-catching blanket that works beautifully as a child’s blanket, a throw for a games room, or a unique handmade gift for gamers of any age.

This pattern is built from individual square motifs, making it a satisfying project you can dip in and out of. The layout chart guides you step by step through the exact placement of each square, and clear joining and border instructions bring everything together into a polished finished blanket.
