Corner To Corner Triple Crochet Baby Blanket

"I love corner to corner blankets and wanted to do one that was more open and lacy than traditional corner to corner afghans for the summer months. I thought that a triple crochet stitch might produce this effect, and I also wanted to use up some yarn scraps that I had lying around. I was quite pleased with the results of my efforts. I crochet these baby blankets to give to the women in my church who are new mothers."
Crochet HookI/9 or 5.5 mm hook
Yarn Weight(4) Medium Weight/Worsted Weight and Aran (16-20 stitches to 4 inches)
Crochet Gauge6.5 blocks = 6"; 6.5 rows = 6" in pattern. I crochet tightly so a smaller hook may be needed to obtain this gauge.
Finished Size32" x 32" (81.28 x 81.28 cm) square (including edging)
