Chameleon Blankets

These versatile blanket pads are perfect for various uses, including pet pads, security blankets, and changing pads. Whether you're looking for a cozy space for your furry friend, a comforting wrap for toddlers, or a practical changing mat for on-the-go situations, these blanket pads have you covered!

This project is also a fantastic stash buster for yarns you have lying around but aren't quite sure how to use. Consider using one strand of an eyelash-style yarn (such as Bernat "Boa"), a nubby-style yarn (like boucle), and a bulky yarn (Lion Brand Homespun comes in an array of beautiful colors). This blanket pad pattern is an excellent way to utilize those odds and ends in your yarn collection while creating something functional and stylish.

To ensure continuity throughout the project, I recommend incorporating one yarn type consistently. This technique helps create a cohesive look, making your blanket pads not just practical but also visually appealing. So grab your hooks and let’s clear out that yarn stash while crafting useful items that will serve various purposes!
