This pattern is for a winter cozy cocoa square themed colorwork Tunisian crochet lapghan that is worked bottom-up in panels using the join-as-you-go method. The bobble stitches add texture and are inspired by cozy vibes that come from fluffy marshmallows in a cup of hot cocoa on a cold winter morning.
