Crochet Blanket
With the seventh square, we’re already starting to build up a nice collection of stitches. This week, Saskia and Petra are getting to work with DROPS Muskat in the color ice bleu (60) and are crocheting/knitting a sort of V-shaped pattern. Saskia crochets a base of single crochets and then adds slip stitches on top. Petra starts at the short side of the square and knits a slipped knit stitch.
Material:
The blanket is made with Drops Muskat cotton yarn. The exact number of balls isn’t known yet, but we’ve already put together a nice selection of colors. The colors used in the blanket are DROPS Muskat colors 40, 05, 29, 10, 19, 03, 20, 24, 09, 53, 60, and 02.
