Baby Blanket  

Posted by: G.R.I.T.S. in , ,






This is a Blanket that I made for a Baby that was born in December of 2008!



Pattern: Chain-as long as you want...I think i did like 150-200(i know a big span but yall know how bad I am about remembering to write these sort of things down)



Row 1: Chain 3 and in the 4th chain from hook, Do a double crochet(DC) and do DC for the rest of the chain length. Ch. 3 and turn Repeat for ROW 2 at end of row 2 ch.4 turn



Row 3: TC (tripple Crochet) the whole length. at end Ch. 3 and turn.



Repeat Row 1-3 till you get desired size. Fasten off!



With other color...Start in a Corner, with a Slip Stitch. Ch.3 then 6 TC in Corner Opening. then 2 DC, then 6 Tripple all the way around the Blanket....this will make your border! with the ripple effect.
Sorry that the Photo's Aren't the best....But Oh well, you can see...:)
Enjoy!

This is one easy pattern, I've done a Lapghan like this before. I made one for my hope chest, and it was white, Pink, and blue. Looks cool, but easy to make and whip out!(In the Photo it's not the one on the Lady's lap...)


Lapghan measures approximately 39" square.
Crochet Hook: 5.5 mm [US I-9].

GAUGE: Rnds 1-6 = 7 ¾" across. CHECK YOUR GAUGE. Use any size hook to obtain the gauge.

With CB, ch 5; join with a sl st in 5th ch from hook to form a ring.

Rnd 1 (Right Side): Ch 3, 2 dc in ring, ch 3, [3 dc in ring, ch 3] 3 times; join with a sl st in top of ch-3.

Rnd 2: Sl st in next 2 dc and into ch-3 sp, ch 3, (2 dc, ch 3, 3 dc) all in same ch-3 sp, ch 1, * (3 dc, ch 3, 3 dc) all in next ch-3 sp, ch 1; rep from * around; join to top of ch-3. Fasten off.
