The Mountain Spring Blanket features some really easy crochet stitches and is such a beautiful and simple design with bobbles. This is a 4 row repeat but it is actually really easy to follow and to remember and because this blanket pattern is made up of mainly double crochet stitches which makes it really quick blanket to crochet up even if it is done in Aran yarn. For the Mountain Spring Blanket I used scrap yarn in five different colors and then used a white yarn every 4th row and for the border. Perfect for beginners and for the more advanced crocheter.
This pattern uses the beautiful star stitch in three colors throughout the blanket. To make this crochet pattern easier, the yarn is carried up the side. For those that do not enjoy the job or weaving in the yarn ends, carrying the yarn up the side is the ticket. The fancy crochet border is achieved with five rounds of crochet stitches. The fourth round creates the rounded shell on the edges and corners, which is perfect if you want to stop after the fourth round. However, if you like the look of a pointed shell, then continue and add the fifth round. The point is made using the picot stitch.

How to crochet an easy, beautiful Sunflower wreath perfect for Summer or Fall decorating, or really, any time of year if Sunflowers are your favorite. It's so easy to customize with more or less flowers. I hang mine from a yarn wreath hanger, and then on a hook on my door, but if you prefer to use a hanger the wreath sits into, just hot glue the bow directly onto the wreath. You'll need worsted weight yarn - I used Red Heart Super Saver, an H8/5mm crochet hook, tapestry needle, glue gun and sticks and a 12" grapevine wreath (or any size you want). I had my wreath finished in just over 3 hours
