Blankies

Just passing by my old blog and sharing a few pics. The updated blog is over at Wordpress.
I've added the information I could for each picture.


Yarn: I Love This Yarn Cobblestonia. 
Hook: I 
Pattern:  Star Blanket by Crystals Patch, an 8 point round ripple. 
Size: about 10-10 1/2″

Yarn: Baby Bee Sweet Delight Prints in color Kitty 
Hook: #7 4.5mm
Pattern:  Very Berry Blanket by Heather Anderson of The UnRaveled Mitten

Hook: I

Foundation chain: 61


Yarn: Kristin Omdahl Be So Baby milk yarn
Pattern:  Bobby's Square

There are errors in Rounds 10-11 but as you’re working it you can easily see what it’s supposed to be.
Here is how I think those rounds should read.
 Complete the pattern as written for the first 9 rounds.
Rnd 10 – Ch 3, 1 dc in space, *dc in next 14 dc, 2 dc in next ch-2 sp, ch 2, sk 3 dc, 2 DC in next ch-2 sp, dc in next 14 dc, (2 dc, ch 4, 2 dc)  in ch-4 loop. Repeat from * two more times. dc in next 14 dc, 2 dc in next ch-2 sp, ch 2, sk 3 dc,  dc in next 14 dc, 2 dc in ch-2 sp, ch 4, sl st to 3rd ch of beg ch 3.
Rnd 11 – Ch 4 (counts as dc + ch-1), sk one dc, dc in next,  (ch 1, sk 1, dc in next st) 7 times, ch 1, 1 dc in ch-2 space in center of row, (ch 1, sk 1, dc in next st) 9 times [note: this means you will have a dc directly before and after corner]. Ch 1, (dc, ch 4, dc) in ch-4  loop (first side complete), *(ch 1, sk 1, dc in next st) 9 times, ch 1, 1 dc in ch-2 space in center of row, (ch 1, sk 1, dc in next st) 9 times. Ch 1, (dc, ch 4, dc) in ch-4  loop, repeat from * twice, ch 1, join in 3rd ch of beg ch 4.

I hope these inspire you to create your own blankies!


Happy crocheting!

Still around

Popping in at blogger to say howdy to anyone who stops by here. I'm still alive and well and continuing the blog over at Wordpress, along with keeping up the website.

My latest projects have gone to Project Robby.

Here are a few of my favorites from the past few months. Even though the occasion is a sad one and I'm sorry it's needed, I do enjoy searching out patterns and reducing them if necessary.

You can find more complete pattern information on these at the other site.

Briefly, the yellow is Fiber Spider's Which Way Filet, the pink and blue ripple is Ripples on the Sand at Yarnspirations, the other pink and blue is my own creation, the bunny is a pattern kit over at Mary Maxim, the next is Boho Berry at Daisy Farm Crafts, then there is Jacob's Ladder at Naztazia worked a little different than my usual JL afghans, then another Fiber Spider called Feather and Fan, the next is After A While Argyle which is a paid pattern, Call the Midwife, and the last is a mile-a-minute called Restful Rainbows in the book Mile a Minute Afghans.

Just popping in

I thought I'd pop over here and say hello in case anyone is still confused about why there are no recent posts here.

The blog and website are now together over at Wordpress. Everything in one place. The blog is the first thing you see when you go to www.crochetcabana.com and the rest of the tutorials, patterns and such are in the drop downs.  I think it looks slightly different on phones and tablets but it should all be there.

I hope everyone had a safe and healthy holiday season. We suffered with the usual colds and viruses but nothing too major. Our Christmas was quiet but nice. We look forward to the New Year. We'll soon see what 2019 holds.

Happy crocheting!
