For a better understanding of my Crochet patterns please see My Special Crochet Abbreviations.






Special Abbreviations:
Ss = Slip Stitch.
Ch(s) = Chain(s).
Sc = Single Crochet.
St(s) = Stitch(es).
Sk = Skip.
Sp = Space.
Hdc = Half Double Crochet.

I used:
4.5 mm hook.
For Blanket Base: Patons Astra (Light 3), 'High Energy'. (Approx 2+ balls)
For Blanket Border: Bernat Baby Jacquards (Light 3), 'Berries & Cream'.
Aunt Lydia's Crochet Thread Fashion 3.

Skill level: Easy. This pattern uses mostly chains and Single Crochets.


Do your best to keep yarn ends to one side of blanket (The 'Wrong' side). This will keep one side (The 'Right' side) cleaner in appearance.

Add this pattern to your Ravelry Favourites.

Approx 24 rows = 6 inches.
Approx. 30sts = 6 inches.

Blanket measures approximately 21 x 31 inches.


Starting with 'High Energy' Yarn.

Start by making a chain of 105 (Multiples of 6 + 3).
