I finally finished my son’s blanket just in time for Christmas. He has always been so excited with his blanket and it was supposed to be a birthday present for him. His birthday was last December 3 and I run out of yarn so I have to order online and I have to wait. It’s my first time making a crochet project this big and I was so happy with the result. Working on the corner to corner crochet was really fun. At first I had trouble figuring the stitch but once you get the hang of it I bet you just don’t want to stop. If you want to make one just follow the written pattern and I also provided the graph below.
