Timeless Lacy Shell Crochet Blanket

By: Vicky Pietz from Pattern Princess
Timeless Lacy Shell Crochet Blanket
Timeless Lacy Shell Crochet Blanket

"This timeless lacy shell crochet blanket is simple but has an elegant touch. Alternating the colored yarn with white really helps make this throw lovely. I must admit, this is a pattern I fell in love with so much that I made two right away. This pattern size is wonderful for a small throw or blanket. However, it would be an heirloom crochet project as a larger afghan. The pattern is a repeat of rows 2-5. It is ideal to end with the stitch pattern on row 3 as this will provide a nice foundation to even out the work on the next row. There are just a few special stitches; the v-stitch, and the shell stitch. The edge consists of the single crochet and double crochet. In total, just a bit shy of five skeins were used for this baby blanket. "

Another blanket to make for my baby gift stash . I make baby blankets to keep on hand for showers, or a special baby that I know the family of. I love this one and will have to get the recommended yarn as it is so shimmery!
