It took me for ever but I have finished it. Now to get it to my Great Nephew. Who is already three months old. Shame on me! It is an all around , Drag around blanket made with Red Heart yarn that will stand up to anything. Just what a growing Boy needs.

Thank you for your comment.

For the blanket I was doing the sampler crochet and did a 9 patch of three Single crochet, three Double crochet, and three cluster stitch crochet.
the squares are 12"
I used Red Heart ww
Colors were Red, Yellow, Lt Blue
Hook Size L
I sewed them together with a single crochet
I bordered it with The Crab stitch aka backward single crochet

For the bunnies I used the same yarn
make three squares. 2 sizes using different hooks
Hooks were G and J
I used the Tunisian Crochet called the Tunisian Knit Stitch (TKS)
I used Jackie Erickson-Schweitzer Pattern found at www.HeartStringsFiberArts.com
