@peejmaybe @Caiotekit Here's one of my current WIPs which I'm making for a friend. The secret is to keep your colours to a minimum - the more colour you have, the more complicated it's going to be. This is one big rectangle, but it might be easier starting out with squares like the Zodiacs blanket:

Absolutely essential to print out the graph so you can mark when you are working up from the bottom left or down from the top right. Plan in advance. You can't carry colour in a C2C blanket for too many squares or it ends up getting messy, so you are going to end up with lots of bobbins of the same colours all over the place. Also, I find, it's not worth trying to colour change like you would do normally, by yarning over the new colour on the last stitch of the old colour. Just finish off the old colour and start the next "pixel" with the new colour.

@Caiotekit You should give Corner to Corner crochet a try if you haven't already. It's basically the granny stitch going diagonally Same vibes for me anyway, nice and soothing, especially if you aren't doing too many colour changes.

@Caiotekit Very pretty. Again, I love your choice of colours
