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.

Crochet Harlequin Graphghan Free Pattern
"If you have wanted to try C2C crochet (or making a graphghan, if that's what you like to call it) for a while, but never really knew how to start?

The crochet pattern explains the basics of C2C crochet (with some nifty sources) and you can follow the graph to make this beautiful blanket. The finished size is 85 cm wide and 130 cm long (33.5 inch x 51 inch)."
Wildlife Graphghan
"Celebrate the wild animals in all their beauty with this fantastic Wildlife Graphghan made of 20 corner to corner (C2C) animal blocks that are joined together! It is amazing how versatile this blanket can be when using different background colors and different placements of the animal blocks! Each animal block is available as written instructions and chart! You can also make smaller blanket sizes when using less animal squares. Just pick the C2C animal squares of your choice, mix and match, then stitch them together with an invisible seam! A ribbed border around the blanket will complete the look. You can also use each of these animal squares to make pillowcases. "
Crochet Diamond Bobble Pattern
"I love using bobbles to create shapes and patterns, they look great using one color yarn or using multiple colors. They are also reversible and you can push them on either side of the pattern. How do you crochet the diamond bobble pattern? The diamond bobble stitch is a crochet pattern constructed with double crochet and bobble stitches evenly spaced out to form a seamless grid pattern of diagonal stripes. I did a tutorial on how to crochet the bobble stitch before, but today I will show you how to create a treble bobble and how to use it to create the diamond bobble pattern."
Flamingo Graphghan
This graph is large at 66 x 100 tiles. Depending on the yarn, hook, and stitch that you choose, this blanket could easily be large enough for a bed. Not up for the challenge? I've also designed a smaller version. The free pdf file includes a full sized version of the graph and also a 4 part breakdown. Since this graph is so large you may choose to print it out in four sections so that the tiles are larger and easier to see.
