A few years back my mother made my kids scarves with double sided knitting. I don’t see any double knitted blanket patterns, although I didn’t look too hard.
I did find a potholder of a tree. 
I have to send her a picture of your blanket and see what she thinks. (I predict she’ll say “I’m 80 years old, I’m not starting THAT”).
Oh, I googled “overlay crochet” and I see it is easier than the other type of mosaic crochet that I’ve done before. But still, a blanket that size was a TON of work!
I’ll have to try overlay mosaic crochet someday. Not even gonna attempt any kind of knitting! 
WHoa! This is fabulous. I love how it looks great from both sides. So beautiful.
I definitely overlay vs inset. Overlay is even easier when you incorporate the fringe into the design like I did on my geometric blanket I posted a while back. Using the envelope border hides the ends so you don’t have a bazillion ends to weave in, but on this blanket, the fringe would have been on the sides instead of the top and bottom. I don’t like that look, hence using the envelope border.
This is so amazing!!
I’m swooning!
In my YouTube feed this morning, was this:

Looks like an interesting technique for avoiding a bazillion ends when doing overlay mosaic crochet.
this is EPPP.PICK. wOwZah!!!
Thanks! I’m working on a second one now done in rainbow self striping yarn. I think I’ll finish it today. I love it even more than this one! 
I dunno. I adore greens. So I’ll happily wait and see what a rainbow one looks like!
mosaic crochet is in my list. But I really want to make that little fox biscornu first. You need to staph it already!!! : )
