A Crocheted Throw/Blanket for my Great Niece

 Today, I am sharing a crocheted throw blanket I made for one of my great nieces. 

I used the lovely textured Sedge stitch which I found HERE on 
the 'Blossom Crochet' YouTube channel.
Rebekah’s tutorials are really easy to follow and she has lots of different
 crochet stitches to share.

I started by deciding how wide I wanted the throw to be. 
I chained 141 stitches, and crocheted rows of the same stitch until I 
reached the desired length.

I finished by crocheting a border of four rows of half trebles.

I purchased the yarn online from The Wool Box
using eight 100g balls of Stylecraft Special DK in the colour ‘Lavender’

A Crocheted Throw/Blanket for my Great Niece

I am back today sharing the crocheted throw/blanket I made for one of my great
nieces for Christmas.
The one I made for her sister can be found HERE

For this one, I used the same pattern as the one I made HERE, which is
 based on the Infinity Scarf pattern designed by the talented Melanie Ham,
who sadly passed away last month, aged 37.

I watched many of Melanie's YouTube tutorials during the first lockdown two
years ago, when I taught myself to crochet. I know I will use many more of her 
patterns in the future too. She was a really talented sewer and crocheter
with a huge following.

The pattern is crocheted rows of the V Stitch.
I bought the yarn online from The Wool Box
and used eight 100g balls of Stylecraft Special DK in the colour ‘Lavender’

A Crocheted Throw/Blanket

Today, I am sharing a crocheted throw blanket I made for one of my great 
nieces for Christmas.

I decided to make it for her after she saw the one I made her Mum which
you can see HERE and liked 'borrowing'!

I used the Primrose stitch which I found HERE on
'Sarah's Rich Textures Crochet' YouTube channel.

I started by deciding how wide I wanted the throw to be, then crocheted
rows of the same stitch until I reached the desired length.

I finished by crocheting a border of two rows of half trebles.

I bought the yarn online from The Wool Box
using seven 100g balls of Stylecraft Special DK in the colour ‘Pale Rose’

I will share the one I made her sister next week.

A Crocheted Throw Blanket for my Niece

Today, I am sharing a crocheted throw blanket I made my niece for her
40th birthday. I'm pleased to say she loved it.

My plan was for her to start using it late September/October time, when the
weather starts getting cooler, but she's told me that she's used it already,!

I adapted the pattern which I used HERE to make the Infinity scarf.
The pattern consists of just the V Stitch. 

I first decided how wide I wanted the throw to be, and then crocheted rows
of the same stitch.

I finished it by adding a small border of double and treble crochet stitches
and then wrapped it with a pretty crocheted blanket tie. 

I purchased the yarn online from The CheapShop, Tiptree, Essex.
I used eight 100g balls of Stylecraft Special DK in the colour ‘Spearmint’
