Notes

Could not resist this little blanket! So cute.

This was more challenging than I expected it to be - in order to make sure eyelets appear where they should, and not where they shouldn’t, obsessive counting and re-counting is required. There’s also a lot of crocheting into - not around - chain stitches which is rather difficult and time consuming.

Additionally, this yarn is very splitty so I ended up having to rip out entire rows when I would see a spot where I had managed to make a stich leaving some strands out, sometimes multiple rows if I didn’t catch it right away. This happened too many times to count.

In the end though it’s a super cute blanket and a simple way of creating a design in the fabric.
