Crochet Beautiful Shells Blanket Pattern Review and "What-I-Used"

By -

Hello again! Today I'm sharing with y'all one of my favorite crochet blanket patterns, The Beautiful Shells pattern. I originally saw it on a crochet Facebook Group I am in and had to try it out!
This is the link to the pattern by Lahoma Nally-Kaye on Ravelry:

What-I-Used:

For my version of her beautiful pattern, I used all 
Red Heart Super Saver and an I-5.50mm crochet hook 

The colors I used were called: 
Aran, Real Teal, and (I'm pretty sure) Turqua.

For my blanket, I wanted it to be a nice baby blanket size, so I did 36 rounds in all, switching colors every 4 rounds. Here is a color chart of sorts as to how I did that:

Rounds:
1-4 Turqua
5-8 Real Teal
9-12 Aran
13-16 Turqua
17-20 Real Teal
21-24 Aran
25-28 Turqua
29-32 Real Teal
33-36 Aran

I absolutely LOVE how this baby blanket came out!
Let me know below if you've ever made one and if so, 
what colors you used, I think this pattern really lives up to it's name.
They really are Beautiful Shells!




Check back soon for more content of pattern reviews like this one,

(I have a few that I'm pretty excited about. :-) 
As always, Thanks for stopping by!

Crochet Lamb Hat *FREE Pattern Modification*

After great reviews and many requests, here it is!  After I posted this photo: in one of the crochet groups I'm in on Facebook asking if I should write up the pattern, I got a TON of comments saying I should defintly do it, so I did! Although, it is not all my pattern, just the main part of the hat. The earflaps and the ears are part of the pattern posted by Sarah at RepeatCrafterMe. (Links to her website can be found below.) I made up the main part of this hat because I could never get the bobble stitches to "puff" enough. And lately, I have been making a lot of puff stitch slouchy hats, so I decided to make this lamb hat using the puff stitch. The puff stitch pattern I followed was the one from Ashley at Sewrella. (Her link can also be found below.)  They are my 2 favorite crochet bloggers, btw. ;) I hope you enjoy and it is easy for you to work up! If you have any questions, feel free to comment below, and I'll answer asap. Happy crocheting! ...
