C2C Succulent Blanket

I am excited to be participating in the 2019 Celebrate Mom Blog Hop hosted by Pattern Paradise! Each day a different crochet designer will be featured and share a new free pattern with you. There are lots of fun prizes too, so come join the fun!
For the list of all the designers and all the details, go to this post ↠ 2019 Celebrate Mom Blog Hop  and Giveaway.


Are you new to C2C? Don't worry, there are some videos that will teach you all you need to know to start your C2C project. Here are my video recommendations: 
- C2C by OneDogWoof (this post will teach you how to start, manage yarn, change colors, etc)

Supplies:

- Red Heart Super Saver (Worsted Weight)
- Crochet hook US size I-9/5.5mm
- Tapestry Needle to weave the ends

Finished measurements: 52" by 35.5"

Notes:

- The blanket consists of three white panels of 21x21 C2C and three panels of graphs (below)
- Sc around each panel to facilitate the joining process
- Each square of the graph is made out of 3dc

Graph 1
Colors used: White and Paddy Green
Graph 2
Colors used: White, Carrot, Blue, Spring Green and Paddy Green

Graph 3
Colors used: White, Tea Leaf, Petal Pink and Bright Yellow.

I added a little yellow flower to the top of this succulent. Make an adjustable ring, *ch 2, dc 3, ch 2, sl st* 4 times. Fasten off and attach the flower with a yarn needle.

Border:

I made used the three different shades of green I had used for the succulents to create the border to create a frame and give the blanket a bold and finished look.
Sc for two rounds with each color. 
For the corners to stay flat, make 2sc in the 3 stitches that make the corner of the blanket. (repeat in each of the 4 corners)

Fasten off and use the tapestry needle to weave in the loose ends.


Happy Crocheting!
