Afghans and Blankets
I love tulips. This flower impresses with its beauty every spring. Crochet Tulip is even more amazing. Especially the crochet flower pattern has all the trappings which can make a perfect spring blanket. Whether you drape it over your couch or cuddle with it in your favorite armchair, this beautiful afghan will definitely add some outdoor charm to your home. It makes you feel like you're in the exquisite tulip gardens of the Netherlands.
This stitch can also make a scarf, hanger cover etc. Crocheting for beginners has never been so easy or stylish! Using the crochet cluster stitch, this pattern is great to practice your crocheting skills.
Tulip Stitch Afghan Square
Afghans and Blankets
This lovely Tulip Stitch Afghan Square is available as a free crochet pattern in 5 different sizes. A photo tutorial is also available to show you how to crochet this stitch pattern. This version of the Tulip Stitch pattern is worked in double crochet stitches, rather than single crochet stitches. The pattern works up quickly and creates a pretty finished square. This will also work for blankets and other items. If you'd like to make a pretty and feminine hat with this stitch, I have also created a free pattern in 11 sizes using the Tulip Stitch. It is linked in the post and a video tutorial is also available. The hat is worked in rounds but the video will demonstrate how the Tulips are created using a popcorn stitch - if you prefer videos. I really love this pretty and feminine stitch pattern. I hope you find the pattern and tutorial easy to follow.
Cuddle Up Dinosaur Blanket

The Cuddle Up Dinosaur Blanket features the corner to corner stitch and a roaring good time! Crochet one for your own little wild one with this crochet pattern on Moogly! With this pattern, it's all too easy to see the possibilities! Change up the colors, and you'll go from dino to Cuddle Up Dragon Blanket! Change up the spike colors, use color-changing yarn, your imagination is the limit. And it's a great accompaniment to the Cuddle Up Unicorn Blanket! I used the Corner to Corner or C2C stitch, aka the box stitch to create most of the pieces for this design. But if you're not a fan, don't fret! You can simply make the Body and Head with simple rows of double crochet, or your own chosen stitch. Just work to the dimensions for each piece given!
Little Couch Potato Siesta Blanket
Afghans and Blankets
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.
Tulip Stitch At Twilight Baby Blanket
Afghans and Blankets
I have a secret. My most favorite color in the world just might be every shade of purple in this delicious Tulip Stitch at Twilight Crochet Baby Afghan. This bit of grape-y goodness reminds me of a gorgeous summer evening just as it's drifting into the darkness of night. And this stitch. Sigh. The Crochet Tulip Stitch just might be my go-to baby afghan pattern stitch from now on. Why? Because it NATURALLY forms this little scalloped border on all sides. What?! You say?! YESSSS…. I know.. mindless crochet project just got even better.
Cluster Burst Afghan

It's not uncommon to have a giant pile of yarn scraps and not know what to do with them. Try this Cluster Burst Afghan crochet pattern that is colorful, fun, and easy to work up with those tiny pieces of yarn! Each little granny square doesn't use that much yarn by itself, but the effect of the whole afghan is spectacular. The colors really do burst out at you from the neutral-hued background, which makes this crochet afghan pattern a great accent piece for your living room or bedroom. Use your weekend to create this fun scrappy afghan.
