I've been working on a blanket for my baby for a few months now and I finished last night. People keep telling me how cute it is and how impressed they are that I made it. I'll be honest. It was a lot easier than it looks. The whole blanket was made from single crochets, double crochets, and slip stitches, so as long as you can follow a pattern and get the stitches in the right spots especially when it comes to the animals you should have no problem making it. Sorry, I wont be puttin the pattern here becasue of copy right. However, I can tell you I got the pattern out of a leisure arts book: Contest Favorites - 40 Afghans to Crochet. If you like to crochet blankets I would totally recommend this pattern book. If you remember my post of blankets a couple weeks back I linked to the same book because this blanket and this blanket also came from it. It really does have a lot of good afghans and I'm dying to make a couple more of them. I changed up some of the colors in the patterns, but no one ever said I had to use the same colors.

I'm sorry, but I've turned word verification on again. I hate trying to decipher the words just as much as anyone, but I'm getting way too much spam. I tried doing comment moderation as people suggested but the number or spam comments I had to sift through was ridiculous. I appreciate your comments and didn't want them to get lost among the spam. Hopefully, I can reduce the amount of spam and turn the word verification off soon.
Beautiful blanket! Great patterns and colors.
ReplyDeleteI cant find the pattern ... can you repost it? Thank you, Melissa
ReplyDeleteThe pattern came from a book called. Contest Favorites - 40 Afghans to Crochet, by Leisure Arts. I never posted the pattern due to copy right issues.
