Pattern Instructions

TIP: if you want a thicker border, repeat round 2 as many times as you like.
this border requires you to have even numbers of stitches, but if you don’t, I am showing you in the video tutorial how to adjust the pattern
the section between ** is the section that needs to be repeated

this border is crocheted in the round without turning, each round is closed with an sl st

Base:

Start with a base row to make stitches all around your blanket. My base row is made out of single crochet stitches.
Start in one corner and make 3sc. Crochet along the edge and make 3sc in each of the corners.
When you have reached the beginning of your round, sl st in the first sc you have made, then sl st in the next stitch to bring the yarn in the corner.



Round 1: *Ch5, sk2, sl st in next*, repeat from * until you have crocheted all around the blanket (make sure your slip stitches end up in the corner stitches). Your last slip stitch should end up in the very first stitch you have started in.



Round 2: 2sl st into the next ch5 space, *ch5, sl st into the next ch5 space*, repeat from * until you have slip stitched into the last ch5 space, ch5, sl st in the second sl st you have made at the beginning of the round.



(OPTIONAL) You can modify this border and make more or fewer chains and also skip more or fewer stitches. In this pink version I have made, I skipped 1st and I chained 3.
