Pattern Notes

Skill Level: Easy

Sizing: This blanket is written in in four sizes as follows: Receiving (Baby, Lapghan, Throw). Make sure to follow the numbers for your size only. Sample shown is the Lapghan size.

Stitch Counts: Stitch counts are listed after each row.

Right Side/Wrong Side: The right side is facing you as you crochet all even-numbered rows.

Turning Chain: The turning chain (ch-3) counts as the first double crochet of each row, but the turning chain (ch-1) does not count as a stitch.

Construction: This blanket is worked lengthwise in one panels. A border is worked last to complete the blanket.

Changing Colors: When changing colors, work the last stitch of the row with the old color, but do not work the final yarn-over to close the stitch. Work this yarn-over with the new color. Then drop the old color, leaving your tail here for you to pick up when you work your next stripe.
