Flowers and crochet
I mentioned last week that I would be attending my sister’s wedding this week, and wow what a beautiful week it has been. Not only did my sister look gorgeous and marry the man of her dreams, but we also had some long overdue family catch-ups during the stay at the hotel. My crafty side also got a chance to try something different and I got to arrange the bridal bouquet’s, my sisters with the red and white roses, while we bridesmaid got coloured roses and some very fluffy dried flowers. I also eventually found the time to add a very simple row to the 2021 blanket – normal service will be resumed next week 🙂
This week, we are adding a very simply row in Ocean blue.

Pattern notes
The pattern is written using UK terminology, for a conversion chart to US terminology click this link.
The blanket is worked in the round. You do not need to turn your work after each row and you continue working in the same direction as before.
[Stitches written in brackets like this are all worked into the same stitch.]
For the first stitch on each row: Chain 1 to move up to the next round if the round starts with double crochet. Chain 2 if the round starts with a half treble crochet, and chain 3 if the round starts with a treble crochet. These chains count as the first stitch in the row
Special stitches
Dc – Double crochet
Start crocheting here:
Row 11
Use Ocean
With the right side of the blanket facing up, start on the left side of any corner. Attach yarn with slip stitch into the stitch that is 1 up from the top of the last row. Then, dc in to each stitch in the row. Attach to next corner square with slip stitch. Fasten off.
Repeat for all 4 sides.
