Crochet Hook - Size K-10.5 (6.5 mm)
Crochet Hook - Size J-10 (6 mm) for edging

Gauge:
9.5 stitches + 5 rows = 4” (10 cm) with larger hook over polka dot pattern

Special stitch: MB (make bobble)

Bobbles are crocheted in a contrast color to the background color of the strip section being worked. Recommended: Catch strand of contrast color in stitches at back of work (this will prevent little toes from getting caught in long strands).

Alternating the background color (5 sections) of each strip creates a patchwork effect.

Blanket is made in 5 strips comprised of 5 differently colored sections. Strips are sewn together and edged afterwards.
