Please do not sell this pattern - you may sell what you make, share the pattern and/or post back to this site.
I used Red Heart Baby Sport in multi-colored yarn and trimmed in a lavender picot shell border -
all #3 medium size yarn
With size J Hook, CH100 or however as wide as you want in multiples of 2
ROW 1 - DC in 5th CH from Hook, DC, CH2, SC, SKIP next 2, do *2DC, CH2, SC* across to end; at the end of the row, CH4, turn
ROW 2 and thereafter - 2DC in 1st CH space, CH2, SC, SKIP next 2, repeat * till blanket is as long as you want it; fasten off.
NOTE - sometimes it is hard for me to describe what I do, since I make it up as I go, so please feel free to ask questions or let me know if the pattern needs to be revised. Thank you!
BORDER: First, do DC in every open space with (2DC, CH1, 2DC) in every corner.
Then, between each DC, do the shell - 2DC, (picot = CH2, go back in bottom of 1st CH), 2DC all around blanket (with shell, CH2, shell in every corner); fasten off.
