Afghans and Blankets
How adorable is this baby blanket? The combination of colors is just so pretty and the texture created by the different stitches makes this a true treasured keepsake. I used “I Love This Yarn” from Hobby Lobby in peach, gray and white - less than one skein of each color - and a 6.0mm hook. It is suitable for a girl or boy. So, grab your hook and yarn and make this blanket. It is quick and fairly easy to make - only requires knowledge of 3 stitches: single crochet, double crochet and herringbone half double crochet.

Beautiful Black And White Granny Square Blanket
Afghans and Blankets
This beautiful black and white granny square afghan is easy to crochet. It was made for my daughter. I made her a baby afghan many years ago. This will be the second afghan that I made for her. The granny square is one of the most easy and versatile crochet patterns around. It can be used to make crochet blankets, scarves, bags, tops, cardigans and a myriad of easy crochet patterns. You can add color and style to your wardrobe and home alike when you learn to crochet a granny square. This beautiful black and white granny square afghan is easy to crochet. This blanket consists of 5 different black and white designs. Making 4 of each square. When I started making this blanket, there was no end plan in mind. Once I got the hang of crocheting a granny square, I just started pairing the black and white in different styles. I love how they turned out.
Tried and True Beginner Blanket
Afghans and Blankets
I have been teaching beginners (read: novice/first time crocheters) to crochet for a couple of years. My favorite projects are any that include a super bulky yarn and a 15 mm hook. Why? These projects can be started and finished in one class and the beginner can leave with a hat on their head (or a cowl around their neck). I designed this blanket with the true beginner in mind. Maybe you took a class, or a friend taught you the single crochet. You’ve made a stack of hats, but you want more! This is the project for you. You will learn the four basic stitches and how to work in rows (working in rows is a beginner skill, but I don't like teaching it for a first time crocheter). I have added notes here and there to help guide you and give you an understanding on the basics of pattern-reading. I have also included a full photo tutorial for each stitch to help you along your way.
