Free Crochet Pattern: Confetti C2C Baby Blanket

I love the varying diagonal stripes as I think they add a bit of interest. I think the border is the best part of any blanket or afghan and so I wanted something that was simple and … [Read more...] about Free Crochet Pattern: Confetti C2C Baby Blanket
