Hi everyone;
I decided to make a blanket for a Baby Boy, as a gift to my friend. And I found excellent pattern. So I would like to share with you.

The pattern is created in multiples of 12 chains +1 ,
so you can size it to fit whatever you are making (scarf, blanket, baby blanket, etc.).
I made a baby blanket and honestly works up quickly:)

I used "NAKO Baby Tweed, Joyful New yarn- 81046"  and a 4.5mm hook. and started with 133 chains.
For more information you can watch : the Video Tutorial : by Yolanda Soto Lopez
Written Pattern Example : for 37 chains (12x3)+1
1- make 37 chains
2- make SC on each chain, turn
3- make 5 chains and 1 DC in the same st., ,
*[skip 3 st., make 5 SC on next 5 st., skip 3 st.,
make (DC+2 ch+DC+2ch+DC) on next st., ] *  repeat between *
skip 3 st,, make 5 SC on next 5 st, skip 3 st.,
and on last st. make 1 DC+2ch+1DC. Turn.
4- make 3 ch, make 4 DC in the space,
*[skip 2 st, make 3 SC, then make 4 DC in the space, make 1 DC on the previous DC, then again make 4 DC in the next space, ]*  repeat between *
skip 2 st, make 3 SC, then make 4 DC in the last space and make 1 DC top of the 3 ch from previous chan. turn,
5- make 1 ch and 1 SC in the same st.,
make 2 more SC on the next 2 ch,
*[skip 3 st,
make  (DC+2 ch+DC+2ch+DC) in the same st, (this is the middle of the SC from previous row),
skip 3 st, make 5 SC on next 5st, ]* repeat
skip 3 st, and make 3 SC next 3 st,, turn
6- make 1 ch, and 1 SC in the same st, then make 1 SC on the next st,
then go to ch-space and make 4 DC in the same space,
then make 1 DC on the previous DC, then again make 4 DC in the next space,
then make 3 SC on middle of the 5sc from previous line,
then repeat, end of the line, make 2 SC on last 2 st.
and REPEAT line 3,4,5,6

Hi,
I was looking for some ideas for my new project, I have checked some patterns from internet, all I wanted to have a nice but easy to make stitches, then I found this stitch and love it!
I couldn't find the source or who made it, and how. But when I see the Diagram of the stitch, (which you will find on below) it was easy for me to make it! Suddenly started.
I have NO idea about the name of this stitch so that's why I made up a name as "Trinity" Stitch:)
PS: I do always share the source to my followers, But honestly this one just a picture and there is no address about it.. if some one knows it pls share with me the source I would like to share that information with my followers !
Here we go!

Crochet: "Granny Stripe" Baby Blanket

This time I would like to share one of my favourite crochet stitch with you.
Granny Stripe Blanket!
It is easy, simple but beautiful and most importantly endless!
You can make a big blanket for your bed, or make table cover, or baby blanket.
If you use different colours in each 2 rows, looks most beautiful. (when I find some more free time, I will do colourful one for my self, I have a lot of left overs, so I can use them for my project)
I made this blanket for my friend's baby boy:)

Hook: 3.5 mm
Yarn: Nako Baby, Bebe Color (blue one)

Note: The hardest part of this project is the first part-making a very long chain, and then working into the very long chain for your foundation row. But to be honest, totally worth it!

Pattern: the pattern stitch is a multiple of 3 + 2 .
The stitch count is a multiple of 3, plus 2 stitches.
I have done 138 chain + 2

Foundation Row: after made 138+2 chains, 1 sc in to the second chain from the hool. and make sc in each chain accross until you reach the end of the row.
Row 1: ch 3, (counts as 1dc), 1 dc in the first sc, [skip 2 sc, 3dc into next sc], 2dc at the end of the sc.
Row 2: ch 3, (counts as 1dc), [3dc into next space between dc groups] repeat to last space. 3dc into last space and then 2dc into 3rd stitch of ch3 from previous row.
then repeat Row1 and 2....
