Kara's Birthday Blanket 2009

Graphic Squares Throw 
Design by:  Anonymous


Finished Measurement:  46"x80"

This is a very simple pattern.  I used double crochet & single crochet stitches.  Kara chose the colors: lemonade, watermelon, mango, and soft mint.  I could take my crocheting with me to appointments or out of town because it is just pieces that are later stitched together.  So I was able to complete her blanket in exactly 4 weeks.

The yellow border around each rectangle is the same double crochet, single crochet pattern.
Then the rectangles were stitched together with a slip stitch.

For the border, I did my own pattern using single crochet, double crochet, & slip stitch.
I did the blue slip stitch right over the yellow single crochet stitch for more detail.

Ahhh!  I think Kara's happy with it!
