St. Nicholas Throw
Afghans and Blankets
The St. Nicholas Throw has a whole list of reasons why it's earned that name! The St. Nicholas Blanket is, of course, a bit Christmas-y in beautiful Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick Quick Fisherman and Cranberry. But it's also very fast to crochet - so you can deliver it in the "nick" of time! And it's also a nod to my brother, Nicholas, who passed away several years ago. I'm not claiming he was a saint he was my little brother after all! - but he did love Christmas, and I'd like to think he'd love this bold, cozy blanket as well. The stitch multiple is included, so you can customize the size of the finished blanket.
