Mother's Day Blanket

This was a simple blanket that moved fairly quickly due to the loose lace like stitch. It is made using the “V Stitch” and for shades of a single color. I used varying blues; the brightest of which I used for the border.

The Lightest Color: B
The Medium Color: A
The Darkest Color: C
The Brightest Color: “Border”

Pattern:
Start off by crocheting 8 rows of “V-Stitch” in color A (V-Stitch requires a chain in a multiple of 3, plus 4)
Border: 1 row of single crochet
2 rows of V-Stitch in color B
Border
1 row of V-Stitch in color C

Repeat Pattern until blanket is desired length then add a Border around the entire blanket in the border color, using a single crochet.
