The Princess Blanket
Pattern Notes
- This pattern is worked from the bottom up and turned for each new row.
- Left-hand hook holders follow this pattern as written, noting that the ‘right side’ [RS] is actually the ‘wrong side’ [WS] for you. This means when you crochet even rows, you will be able to read the ‘princess.’ If you consult the graph, remember to read right to left on odd rows & left to right on even rows.
- This pattern can be made with any weight yarn & hook, but the finished size is approximately 33 by 36 inches (84 by 91 cm) using DK weight yarn and a 4.5mm hook. Using Worsted weight yarn the finished size is approximately 49 by 52 inches (125 by 132 cm).
- This pattern can be increased/decreased in size by changing your yarn weight and hook size.

Dazzling Diamonds Blanket
This beautiful blanket features tiled diamonds of varying sizes. Use a rainbow of colors to create a stunning baby blanket. Use just one or two colors for a timeless yet modern throw to accent any room.
This pattern can be worked with any weight yarn and any size hook. I used Stylecraft Special DK yarn in Candyfloss, Apricot, Lemon, Spring Green, Sherbert, Wisteria and White.
Finished size of approximately 28x36 inches. Yarn amounts and finished size will vary depending on your personal tension.
This pattern can be increased/decreased in multiples of 18 + 5 stitches across and 17 rows up to make any size blanket.
