Learn to Crochet: Lion Brand Yarn. Crochet blanket - Voila! Finished!
Initially the stripes were supposed to be horizontal. I started off with a toooooo long foundation chain (and discovered it waaaaaay to late to unravel the hours of work I had put in to it...) and quickly I had to come up with a solution which was "Turn the blanket around! ". And I did. So the stripes are now vertical with horizontal treble crochet stripes at the top and bottom of the blanket.
I planned for an edging but found that no edging would be able to compete with the decorative Shell Stitch and the way the colours mix and match in this blanket. Am I proud? And do you want to know how to make the shell stitch? KärlekAnnette. Stripes of Love: some progress. Sep26 Good morning sweeties!
