Introduction
A crochet diamond blanket has such a warm, handmade look. The soft zigzag rows, granny-style texture, diamond points, and long tassels make it feel cozy, decorative, and perfect for a bedroom, sofa, reading corner, or handmade gift.
This Boho Diamond Peaks Crochet Blanket is an original pattern inspired by the look of a textured diamond-edge blanket, but it uses a fresh construction and clear stitch counts so it can be made correctly. The design combines a granny-style striped blanket body with decorative diamond motifs along one edge and soft tassels at the points.
The finished blanket has a modern boho look with soft teal, warm taupe, and cream colors. It is beautiful as a throw blanket, bed runner, cat blanket, sofa blanket, or cozy home decor piece.
Description
This crochet blanket is made with a textured granny stitch body and separate diamond motifs attached along the bottom edge. The body is worked in rows using simple granny clusters, creating a soft, slightly raised fabric. The lower edge is finished with diamond-shaped granny motifs, giving the blanket that beautiful pointed look.
Each diamond motif uses the same colors as the blanket: dusty teal, warm taupe, and cream. Cream tassels are added to each diamond point for a relaxed bohemian finish.
This pattern is best for confident beginners. The stitches are simple, but the project includes joining motifs, keeping edges straight, and adding tassels neatly.

Can I make the blanket without diamond motifs?
Yes. You can make only the granny stripe blanket body and finish with a simple border.
