Vintage Shell Stitch Baby Blanket
I love this stitch! I’ve been eyeing the vintage shell stitch for years and I’ve happily created a baby blanket featuring this pretty arrangement of treble crochets.
Here is a video tutorial on AllFreeCrochet for the Vintage Crochet Shell Stitch. Some of the stitch counts are slightly different than my pattern, but this video will give you the general idea for how to work up this stitch and especially where you place your hook in rows 2 and beyond: https://www.allfreecrochet.com/Crochet-Videos/Vintage-Cro...
To adjust the width of the blanket, chain any multiple of 6.
Gauge is not critical for this project.
