but they're super easy to make and look kind of cool. My mom uses hers for an emergency car blanket lol - it ended up being pretty heavy with all the felt. I've started cutting out different sizes of squares, triangles, etc. of velvet and silk scraps for my next one, and will join them with, and add, blocks of crochet, then quilt it. The scrumbing (freeform crocheting) for them is a lot of fun - no such thing as mistakes!, and uses up every bit of scrap yarn, ribbon or whatever you choose to use. I will take a picture once I get this one done. You should try it, it's great for stress, too!
This is just an example of a block using different weights and textures of yarn. You can also use ribbon, strips of most kinds of material, cording, etc. and go as structured or wild as you like. I've seen a full blanket with the crocheting only, and it was beautiful. Some day ....!
