Use it as a border on a crochet project or make a full project featuring it.
I’ve personally used in the Rose Garden Blanket Square.

Techniques You Will Need
CHANGING COLORS:
When changing from one color to another, you’ll never finish the stitch with the color you where working with.
Do all the steps of the stitch, then leave the last step unworked. Yarn over with the color for the next st & pull yarn through.
Repeat this every time you change colors to make the color changes look beautiful.
