Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these detailed instructions to create your own Meadow Blossom Blanket:

1. Start with a Magic Ring: Create a magic ring to begin your blanket. This will serve as the center of your design.
2. Round 1: Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet), then work 11 double crochets into the magic ring. Join with a slip stitch (sl st) to the top of the chain-3. You should have a total of 12 double crochets.
3. Round 2: Chain 3, double crochet in the same stitch, then work 2 double crochets in each stitch around. Join with a slip stitch. You will have 24 double crochets.
4. Round 3: Chain 3, double crochet in the same stitch, then *double crochet in the next stitch, 2 double crochets in the next stitch; repeat from * around. Join with a slip stitch. You will have 36 double crochets.
5. Round 4: Chain 3, double crochet in the same stitch, then *double crochet in the next 2 stitches, 2 double crochets in the next stitch; repeat from * around. Join with a slip stitch. You will have 48 double crochets.
6. Continue Increasing: Keep increasing in this manner until you reach Round 12. Your blanket will start to take shape with a beautiful circular design.
7. Change to Sage Green Yarn: For Round 13, chain 3, then double crochet in each stitch around. Join with a slip stitch. You will have 72 double crochets. Repeat this round for 3 more rounds, maintaining the sage green color.
8. Change to Buttercup Yellow Yarn: For Round 17, chain 3, then double crochet in each stitch around. Join with a slip stitch. Repeat this round for 3 more rounds, using the buttercup yellow color.
9. Continue Alternating Colors: Continue alternating between the colors (lavender, sky blue, and sage green) and repeating the rounds until you achieve your desired blanket size. Each color should have 4 rounds before switching.
10. Finish with a Cream Border: Once your blanket reaches the desired size, finish with a round of single crochet (sc) in cream yarn to create a neat edge around your blanket.
