"A relative made this form son 32 years ago. I am trying to make one so that my daughter can have one for her children too. Would be amazing if someone would do a tutorial video so I can figure out how to do it! Got to row 15 and cannot figure it out!"

"This pattern is no longer available on the Lionbrand Website which is unfortunate since it looks like an absolute beautiful afghan."

"Looks beautiful, and was easy to do once I watched the YouTube video tutorial which is linked from the pdf pattern. I will definitely be making a few afghans from this pattern!"

"Ok, I give up. Thought I had it figured out but still is not working out right. Row 15 is the problem row. When I get to 16 and 17 they do not look right because 15 is not right. Would love to finish this lovely blanket."

Moss Stitch Baby Blanket

"Learn how to crochet a moss stitch baby blanket with this free pattern and video tutorial. Design your own pattern once you learn how to master the crochet moss stitch. This stitch consists of a single crochet and chain stitch. This pattern is perfect for a beginner at crochet. While I am calling this the moss stitch today, this stitch is often referred to as the linen stitch or the granite stitch. This pattern works up nicely. The blanket feels soft and has a woven texture. I just love the look and feel of this stitch. Today, I am showing you the pattern for a baby blanket. I think the it could also be used as a lap afghan to keep the legs warm and not drag on the floor."
