Free 3D Crochet Blanket Patterns

3D Optical Illusions have always fascinated me. It never occurred to me that we could create 3D Crochet Blanket Patterns that could replicate the illusions!

I have searched online to find you some great free 3D Crochet Blanket Pattern options. I do not have permission to share photos for many of these but I definitely recommend you pop by and see the designs by Jellina Verhoeff. She is from the Netherlands and her posts are written in Dutch first and then followed by the English translation.

If you would like to try other Optical Illusion Crochet projects there are some available for purchase online. Here are a couple links to get you started:
