The BOXED SHELLS Crochet Blanket produces a very classy and elegant blanket. It is an easy pattern that produces impressive results. The pattern is suitable for a girl or boy. This pattern is perfect for a beginner. Fun and easy to make.

I want you to succeed in making this blanket and Love It. The PDF includes a 14-page tutorial with 50+ step-by-step photos to walk you through and show you exactly where to place your hook and stitch. The stitches used in this pattern are Chain Stitches, Single crochet, and Double Crochet stitches. It reads like a friend explaining how to make the blanket. Pattern repeat is included so that it can be made virtually any size. The pattern is written in US terms. A chart is included in the pattern for UK/AUS, including crochet terms, yarn weights, and hook sizes. Photo tutorial can be viewed on your monitor or printed off.

If you are like me, choose a blanket by the stitch/pattern first, not the size. Have you ever seen a blanket you really love, but the pattern is for a baby blanket? Or it is baby blanket size, and you want to make a large afghan. Not a problem here. Every one of my patterns includes the pattern repeat so that you can make it ANY size.

The White Blanket Measures 36” wide x 48” long (91cm x 121 cm). Made with Big Twist Rainbow Classic Yarn. Bulky (5) weight Yarn.

The Caron Big Cakes Blanket Measures 28” wide x 30” long (71cm x 76 cm). It uses medium (4) weight Yarn. I used one 10.5 oz. /300g skein. I loved how this yarn worked up, plus the fact that I could have a multi-color blanket and no ends to weave in was nice!

The multi-color blanket I used is I Love This Yarn, in the color Surf’s Up. I used three 5oz. Skeins for a total of 15 ounces. The finished blanket measures 27” wide x 40” long.
