Special Memories Blanket
Part Four
Hi Everyone! This week we will be working on Part Four of the Special Memories Blanket Crochet Along! Thank you all for sharing your version of the Special Memories Blanket so far. Getting to see how much your blankets have grown is such a joy. By this point you should have completed Part Three of the blanket. If not, no worries. (When you get it to that point then you can pick up Part Four.) It does take a little longer to decrease the blanket. Now we will continue to bring our blanket back down in size. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to crochet this blanket with me. Enjoy!
Grab your blanket, I hook, your favorite beverage and a snack, and whatever else you may need so we can continue working on our blankets.
