"I am in love with this blooming crochet star stitch blanket. If you can crochet basic stitches like the single crochet and half double crochet, you can make this beautiful crochet pattern too. This pattern comes with a link to my step-by-step photo tutorial, written tutorial, and a video tutorial from my Youtube channel. Chunky Easy Crochet Blanket Pattern This stitch is a bit of a yarn eater, which can be a good thing if you are trying to use up your yarn stash. However, when completed, it creates a rather chunky blanket, and I just used a Caron One Pound yarn for this project. "

Blooming Granny Square Baby Afghan
Several years ago I hosted a crochet-along for a stitch sampler blanket and one of the squares was the Blooming Granny Square. In the CAL we did small squares as the learning swatch size. Well, one of my contactors loved the look of the small blooming granny square so she made several, seamed them together then added the same border we used for the stitch sampler blanket to her new blanket and voila! The minute I saw it I knew I needed to purchase the sample and publish it as an option for that very cute square. So, let's say thank you to Jennifer Purtee for her vision and enjoy this fun pattern. If you find you are having trouble with the stitch pattern you can always watch the video for the square I did for the CAL. It is a a step-by-step video tutorial that can be found on the Marly Bird YouTube Channel. By the way, have you subscribed to my YouTube Channel yet?
Crochet 12-point Star Blanket
The crochet pattern uses the double crochet stitch throughout and works up rather quickly. It has a lovely drape and texture. This blanket was made using a cotton yarn, which makes this light. Yet, it provides just the right amount of coverage for summer or any time of the year. Throughout this crochet pattern, you will be working in the round in a circular motion. This pattern adds stitches that help increase the size, yet keep the blanket laying flat. This star blanket is crocheted in a chevron style. When making the points to the star, stitches are added. On the other hand, in making the valleys of the star, stitches are skipped.
