Baby Blanket

This is one of my current projects. I am crocheting a blanket in hopes of selling it at my mom's city-wide garage sale next weekend. It is a fairly basic pattern and I am still not quite half-way finished with it. It has a gold-colored end and the rest is going to be brown.

Row 1: chain 108

Row 2: *10 half double crochets (hdc) on the first ten chains, skip two chains then hdc in the next ten chains. 3 hdc in the next chain.* Repeat from * across to last four chains. hdc in last four chains, chain one, turn.

Row 3-?: hdc in first four hdc, *skip the next two hdc, hdc in the next ten hdc, the hdc in the next hdc. Hdc in the next ten hdc. *repeat from * across to the end, chain 1 then turn and repeat row 2 in each hdc across.  I put a question mark because you can keep doing this pattern as long as you would like until it is the desired length. Alternate between rows two and three until you get to the end. I also added some front post stitches in every other row in the brown section.

 

Thank you for your time, I hope you enjoy the pattern. The hdc can be replaced with a single, double, or treble crochet as desired. Since I was doing a baby blanket, I wanted there to be few holes that were small enough to not get a baby's finger stuck in.
