Crochet Pattern Notes

• I will refer to the different color skeins of yarn as Color A, Color B, etc.
• Written in standard US terms
• To make a bigger blanket, you will need to chain a multiple of 14 +3. For example…14,28,42,56,70,84,98,112, 126,140,154,168,182,196,210,224, 238,252,266,280,294,308, etc. then add 3 chains to whatever length you have chosen.
