I designed a fall themed C2C scarf that you will see later this year, but while designing, I envisioned this blanket. I couldn’t finish up the scarf fast enough to get this on my hook.

I have seen lots of items made with “Blessed” on. Have you spotted them too? Like the number of floral blouses, as well as throw pillows. Now you can add this one to the collection.

I did consider adding tassels to my corners, but opted not to when I thought about how pom poms fall apart in the wash. I haven’t attempted to wash tassels, but I didn’t want to take a chance, and did want this blanket to be machine washable.

Before we get into the pattern, I have a warning - I had 309 ends to weave in! I was bad, and saved all of the ends from the word until I finished the last letter, and ugh! I spent quite a bit of time weaving them all in. I also worked in a double strand of worsted weight yarn, and weaved each strand in individually. Read on for more information, and alternatives.

Materials:

• 2960 Yards of Worsted Weight Yarn - I used Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Yarn, about 1.5 Skeins of Black, and 7 Skeins of Ivory
• M13/9mm Crochet Hook
• Tapestry Needle for Weaving in Ends (or Small Crochet Hook)

Material Notes:
For this blanket, two strands of worsted weight yarn are held together. In it’s place, you could use one strand of super bulky (#6) yarn. Take a gauge. If you don’t mind a slight difference in measurements, gauge isn’t essential. Keep in mind, by using a bulky or super bulky yarn, you will cut down on the number of skeins to keep track of at one time, and the number of ends to weave in, which is a plus

Yarn Alternative/s (if using the worsted weight): Red Heart’s With Love.

Time Spent:
This blanket took me just over 21 and a half hours. There are lots of factors that could affect this, the main one how you choose to weave in your ends.

42.25” Wide by 47.75” Tall
