Materials Needed

• Yarn: Bulky weight yarn in soft pink and cream
• Crochet Hook: 6.5 mm (K) crochet hook
• Gauge: 10 stitches and 6 rows = 4 inches in double crochet

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Chain: Begin by making a foundation chain of 120 stitches. Ensure that your chain is not too tight, as this will affect the flexibility of your blanket.
2. Row 1: In the 4th chain from the hook, make a double crochet (dc). Continue to double crochet in each chain across the row. You should have a total of 118 double crochets at the end of this row. Turn your work.
3. Row 2: Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet), then double crochet in the next stitch. Now, *chain 1, skip 1 stitch, and double crochet in the next stitch; repeat from * across the row. You will end with a chain 1 and a double crochet in the last stitch. Turn your work.
4. Row 3: Chain 3, then double crochet in the first chain space (the space created by the chain 1 from Row 2). Now, *chain 1, double crochet in the next chain space; repeat from * across the row. Turn your work.
5. Repeat Rows 2 and 3: Continue repeating Rows 2 and 3 until your blanket reaches your desired length. Make sure to end with Row 3 for a consistent finish.
6. Scalloped Edge: To create the beautiful scalloped edge, work 5 double crochets in the last stitch of each corner. For the sides, make 1 double crochet in each stitch along the edge. This will give your blanket a lovely, finished look.
7. Finishing: Once you have completed the scalloped edge, finish off your work by cutting the yarn and pulling it through the last loop. Weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle to ensure a clean finish.
