This is my most ambitious project to date, the Faith CAL by Helen Shrimpton (with a few modifications).
What big or small blankets are you working on?

Wow! I need more photos of that blanket. It looks impressive!
I’ve never crocheted a blanket. It is a big project I think I’ll tackle by crocheting one granny square a day for ~~the rest of my life~~ a few months, hopefully to get through my yarn stash of shame.
Edit: typo… though a “yawn stash” sounds accurate this morning.
Making squares into a blanket is a great way to do it :) And the squares themselves can be very satisfying just because they go from casting on to finished so quickly. It's nice to have something that works up fast, especially if you've got bigger things also on the go.
Here's a close-up of part of the underside:
And you can see a little more detail here (the flowers are the centre parts of big squares for the border that I'm working on adding):
This is gorgeous. It is like a sun-kissed beach.
And soon with flowers! Such a puzzle. I admire you. I hope it goes great ✨
