Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these detailed instructions to create your own Whispering Willow Lace Blanket:

1. Foundation Chain: Begin by making a foundation chain of 150 stitches. Make sure your chain is not too tight, as this will affect the overall drape of the blanket.
2. Row 1:
   • In the 4th chain from the hook, make a double crochet (dc).
   • *Chain 1 (ch 1), skip the next chain, and make a dc in the following chain; repeat from * across the entire row.
   • Once you reach the end, turn your work.
3. Row 2:
   • Chain 3 (this counts as your first dc).
   • Make a dc in the first dc of the previous row.
   • *Chain 2 (ch 2), skip the next chain-1 space, and make a dc in the next dc; repeat from * across the row.
   • End the row with a dc in the top of the turning chain from Row 1, then turn your work.
4. Continue the Lace Pattern:
   • Continue to follow the established lace pattern for a total of 100 rows or until your blanket reaches your desired length.
   • Ensure that your tension remains consistent throughout to maintain the integrity of the lace design.
5. Finishing Touch:
   • Once you have completed the desired number of rows, finish your blanket with a simple border.
   • To create the border, work a single crochet (sc) stitch around the entire blanket.
   • In each corner, make 3 sc to ensure the corners lay flat and have a polished look.
