Weeks 1 -6 so far!
This concludes Week 6! We are now two-thirds of the way done!
This blanket is designed to be a lap blanket (or lapghan), measuring approx 60″ wide and 48″ long. After we finish Week 8 I will share with you how you can repeat sections of this Crochet Along to make your blanket as long as you wish! I’ve decided to make the second blanket I started (in Caron Cakes Pistachio) long enough to fit top to bottom on my queen size bed, so I will be able to go along with you as you grow your project if you choose to!
If you haven’t already, join us over in the Couch Surfer Crocheters Facebook group, or share your progress with me on Instagram!
On to Week 7!
