This pattern was partially inspired by Spanish tile work, and is made up of octagon and square pieces that are then crocheted together. 

Yarn: I used Red Heart Soft Touch yarn in three colours -- tangerine, turquoise, and charcoal -- and used 3 skeins of each to create this 4 foot by 5 foot throw.

Hook: You’ll require only a 5 mm hook and some time.

Note: To be able to crochet this piece, you’ll need to know how to make basic crochet stitches, and the instructions are based on US crochet terms.
