Easy baby blanket


Finals are over! This means that I will have much, much more time to crochet than during the school year, especially until I start my research job in a couple weeks. That being said, I finished a baby blanket that I had started months ago. I think it turned out pretty well. I used Red Heart's One Ball Baby Blanket Pattern and light blue I Love This Yarn from Hobby Lobby. While I generally really like the pattern, there were a couple of changes that had to be made to it:

1) It took almost two skeins of yarn from start to finish.
2) For Row 2, the "dc in first dc" should actually be "dc in chain 2". This was confusing until I realized the mistake.

Time for this project: 11 hours and 45 minutes
Total time: 19 hours and 55 minutes
