Margot Baby Blanket Free Crochet Pattern
"With the Margot Baby Blanket i found a crochet stitch which is actually a filet crochet stitch pattern and then i integrated a border seamlessly so you just crochet the border on both sides of the blanket as you are crocheting along which automatically gives it a finish look, how easy is that! On the top and bottom of the blanket i didn't put any border on as i actually quite liked it already and felt it didn't need a border but you can add a border if you wish. This crochet blanket pattern is suitable for a beginner."
