Afghans and Blankets
Nothing says Halloween like black cats and jack-o-lanterns! Halloween is my favorite Holiday so of course I just had to design a Halloween themed blanket. This blanket is made using the traditional corner to corner method. You can follow the written instructions (I provide both starting points: starting from the bottom right corner or bottom left corner) or you can download and then print the PDF for the pixel graph (this is my preferred method).

Four Points Star Blanket
Afghans and Blankets
This pretty little blanket is made using 4 of my Four Points Squares. The single crochet join as you go method is used to join them together, then a border is added. This blanket will make a lovely addition to the room of any little star in your life! Plus, it can be machine washed and dried thanks to the Red Heart Super Saver yarn it's made from!
Paw Print Blanket
Afghans and Blankets
This Paw Print Blanket is a really special project for me. I wanted to make something special for our sweet girl Ashley, who turned 9 on the 23rd of February. Since she loves animals (dogs especially), I decided to design a corner-to-corner (c2c) Paw Print Blanket. I thought it would be fun to make four separate c2c graphs to spell the word "love" and to replace the "o" with a paw print. I then decided on some really fun yarn colors that I thought Ashley would love. I decided on Red Heart Super Saver in Turqua, Pretty-n-Pink, Freshmint and Amethyst.
Diamond Quilt C2c Graphgan
Afghans and Blankets
The Diamond Quilt C2C Graphgan is a crochet pixel blanket pattern with a modern look that features (almost) all the colors of Caron Little Crafties! Or you can use all those special odds and ends of your favorite colors and remember your favorite past projects - like a real quilt! Of course, I also needed a background yarn - and Caron Simply Soft is the perfect yarn to combine with the Little Crafties! I chose white, but I think this blanket would be amazing with black or gray as the backdrop for the diamonds. Just switch out the black or gray diamonds with the white Little Crafties skein! Both written instructions and a graph are included. I tried to match the colors in the graph to the actual yarn colors and create a random-ish arrangement, but of course, you can rearrange these colors however you like!
Let It Snow Blanket
Afghans and Blankets
This Let is Snow Polar Bear blanket is worked corner to corner. I use the traditional method of making three double crochets for each square. This pattern was the first corner to corner project where I followed the written instructions instead of the graph. I had printed the graph on one page and it was too small. I was able to figure out how to split the graph over 4 pages for you guys so you'll have both options. Happy crocheting!
Crab at Beach Graphghan
Afghans and Blankets
This free crochet pattern comes in graph form. There are no written instructions. The design features an adorable crab playing happily at the beach. If you're unfamiliar with crochet a graph you can find two articles within this blog post that go into more details about three different ways that a graph can be crocheted- HDC, Bobble, and c2c. If using the c2c method this graph will work up to a pretty good sized medium or throw sized blanket.
