Create bobbins of colors before beginning for intarsia crochet techniques.

You need to be familiar with how to change colors using the “yarn under technique”. If unsure how to do so, see this blog post for further explanation.

As a visual of what the blanket will look like, below is a chart of the full blanket, but I would recommend using the small sun chart (pictured above) as it will be easier to read and follow.
