New Granny Stripe Scarf Pattern

I am finally finished with all the  little details of the new granny stripe scarf pattern. This is a cute variation and is bordered with a whimsical picot border. It is a fun pattern to crochet and is a great way to learn to start combining stitches. Once you learn the picot border you can add it to any crochet item.  This scarf is 5′ long and 6″ wide. This is a great size for adults or older children. The bright sunshine colors will brighten any day.

I love this photo of the border on the blanket.

You can find the pattern in both my Etsy shop, and Craftsy shop!

Life has been busy here as I am in full Spring Cleaning mode.  Yes, that does deserve a being written in bold. We are finishing up some DIY projects around the house and I am changing out all of the photos, artwork, table top decor and stuff to give the house an fresh, updated look.

Here I have gathered all the wall art together so I can see which things go together.   New Granny Stripe Scarf Pattern

Most of these items are things that I put together. The green bottle on the wicker drawer unit is an olive oil bottle. I use it as a flower vase. The vases on the floor I made for the craft show. I have been shopping my home for my accessories as I refuse to spend much money for my decorating. The rest of the room is in an uproar as I am going through our bookcases and getting rid of books that we have out grown. It is just time to clean up and clear things out.

talk to you later,

Ripple Crochet Blanket Pattern

Hi all,

I finally released a new pattern out into the world. Rather, it is an old pattern that is simply written down for you. It is for sale in my Etsy shop. www.chocolatedogstudio.etsy.com

Here  are the photos of the crochet blankets you can make with this pattern.

It is a great pattern that teaches you how to make your own blanket. You can take this pattern and make it any size you would like.  Use up your leftover scrap yarns and  have a beautiful blanket at the end of your project.

Here is a direct link to Etsy and Craftsy:

I must run as I feel that I am really late today!
