I've decided to make a bunch of baby blankets starting with this Wild Flower Winds yarn (I Love This Yarn). For this blanket, I followed the Frankenyarn Blanket pattern by Projectarian. I crocheted 25 squares.
I followed the pattern and used the continuous join as you go method to join the squares.
Still joining...
Once all the squares were joined, I crocheted the border. I did a couple rows of moss stitch in white, and the I finished it off with a row of colorful pom poms.
The blanket is complete... I may block it. The info letter given to crocheters making blankets for the program says the blankets don't need to be blocked.
I also made a corner to corner crochet blanket with this yarn.
I love the colors.
I added a pom pom border with dark blue yarn.
Corner to corner crochet is my go to stitch for quick baby blankets.
Making these two blankets used up all 5 of my skeins of Wild Flower Winds yarn. Yay! I believe this yarn has been discontinued, which is sad because it's really pretty!
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Every month a group of bloggers are challenged by C'mon Get Crafty to create a new craft or project from their own stash of goodies! Everyone is allowed a $10 allowance for necessities to complete their project (i.e. paint brushes, glue, etc), but the bulk of it must be created from their own stash of goodies.

Both of your blankets are great. There is something fascinating about the corner to corner one.
ReplyDeleteVery nice and what a good charity to donate to. It's interesting how different the two look given the same yarn. Popped in from Party in Your PJ's.
