Fast Care Package Throw
The Fast Care Package Throw is colorful, fun, and very fast to crochet - which makes it perfect for care packages! Whether it's a homesick kid off at college or a friend going through a hard time, sending love you can literally wrap yourself up in is always a very good thing. There are several tricks that make the Fast Care Package Throw so fast to crochet! First and foremost, it's made with 3 strands of yarn all held together. Use all the same color or mix and match to customize this throw! Secondly, the fringe is built right in, so there's no border or edging to make and no ends to weave in. Let's say that again: No. Ends. At. All. Love that! All you do is crochet, cut, and turn - and before you know it, you'll have a Fast Care Package Throw to send to someone special!
Little Couch Potato Siesta Blanket
This Little Couch Potato Siesta Blanket was crocheted over the course of one weekend (at a relaxed pace), with 3 cakes of Pool Party Bernat Blanket Stripes yarn. The yarn was easy to work with and except for the final row of the project I let the colors come out of the yarn cake as they were dyed. The last row I removed a small section in the dark blue in order to use the next color in the ball to complete the final 2 rows in the same color. Two separate colors over the final 2 rows did not fit with the flow of the rest of the blanket. So if you end up in a similar place after you reach row 50 consider cutting out a small section and allowing the next section to take it's place to make the blanket color flow a bit more smoothly. This was a very relaxed and simple project to crochet. I love the striped effect created by the yarn and not having to sew in a bunch of yarn ends! Great for gifts, baby showers, children, floor blankets and cuddle time! Drew's finished blanket measures 40 inches wide and 36 inches long. The stitch multiple is 2+1 so you can create this to any size you wish easily.
Haunted House Blanket
If you're looking for a spooky Halloween blanket crochet pattern, look no further! My latest free crochet pattern is this Haunted House themed corner to corner Halloween blanket. I am really happy with how this crochet blanket turned out. It was definitely worth the work of weaving in those ends. My kids are already fighting over it. We are all Halloween lovers in this house. I think it would be a fun crochet gift for a Halloween loving child, friend or family member. It would also make an awesome baby shower gift for a Halloween baby.
Pillow Soft Throw
"This blanket has an interesting texture and beautiful border that resembles a woven fabric. I designed it in bold stripes alternating three colors, but you can customize the stripes, or keep it solid to really showcase the gorgeous texture. It works up so fast and is so soft in this yarn, but it would look great in many other yarn choices - try it in a bulky for a super thick throw or a DK or Sport for a finer look (perhaps a baby blanket). It's easy to adjust sizing too, I give you instructions so you can make it smaller or larger! Approximately 40 x 45” Designed in worsted weight yarn"
