Calleigh's Clips Baby Blanket Mini C2C Graphgan - Joining the Squares, Border and Finishing

I haven't had a chance to "write" out the Joining the squares and Final Border Details! Life is just a little busy and crazy right now! I took a part time job and I'm learning to adjust with less time to crochet. I sure wished I'd wrote it out earlier when I did it LOL. Someday I'll learn that is the easiest way to write a pattern but I got excited to finish. 

I will add to this very soon. Hopefully by the end of the week if not by the end of March! 
I do however have the videos loaded up on youtube so you can follow along on how to finish up! I know of a few of you are patiently waiting so I hope this helps in the mean time! I'll add more to this post very soon!

Calleigh's Clips Baby Blanket Mini C2C Graphgan - Edging Squares

Who's ready to Edge all those squares from 
the mini c2c graphgan so we can join them?

I found explaining the edging typed out a little confusing so I was sure to make a video showing you exactly what I did, along with the typed out instructions. Just don't over think it!


Edging: 

Join yarn in any corner, (sc, ch 2, sc) [First corner made],

sc in the next Square space, 

*(ch 2, sc in next square space) Repeat from * 12 more times), sc in next square space, 
(sc, ch 2, sc ) [2nd corner made]

(15 ch-2 spaces including both corners) 
Pattern continued below notes:

NOTES: Continue pattern around each side making sure you have 15 ch-2 spaces along each edge. See Video for further explanation. 


sc in the next Square space, *(ch 2, sc in next square space) Repeat from * 12 more times), sc in next square space,(sc, ch 2, sc ) [3nd corner made]

sc in the next Square space,*(ch 2, sc in next square space) Repeat from * 12 more times), sc in next square space, join with a sl st to 1st sc. Fasten off and Weave in Ends. 

If you have any questions, please watch the video 1st and then feel free to email me. We'll have joining instructions later in the week. 

Calleigh's Clips Baby Blanket Mini C2C Graphgan - Square 9 -Bumble Bee

Today is the day! We are on our last square! While this little bumble bee wasn't really part of the logo I thought he fit in rather well. Isn't he just a cute little buggy. 

I've just added the video and better written instructions for the square edging (you can find that at the end of the this pattern) 

Be sure to add your projects in Ravelry and feel free to share on social media. I'd love to see your squares! 

Maybe one day I'll create more graphs with some other 
critters or creatures.

Calleigh's Clips Baby Blanket Mini C2C Graphgan - Square 7 & 8 - Rainbow Stripes

Sorry I'm getting this weeks square to you a little later in the day this week. I started a new part time job so I'm trying to juggle this new adventure. 

Don't worry Calleigh's Clips isn't going anywhere! I still plan to design and create wonderful items for you.

 I hope you are really enjoying this blanket! 
We are coming down to the last few squares. 

Since It's a crazy week for me and you need two of this square for the blanket there will only be this one post this week instead of two. 

I do need to apologize. While I've filmed all the videos I haven't had time to edit them all. I'm going to try very hard to do that this week. So be on the look out for those as well.

This weeks squares are super simple diagonal stripes 
with easy color changes every couple rows.
These should work up easy peasy and fast!  

Here is a link to the full materials list, other squares and 
project details!

Calleigh's Clips Baby Blanket Mini C2C Graphgan - Square 6 - Mushrooms

Today's square is full of whimsy and fun! I couldn't decide if I wanted one mushroom or two, but ultimately decided on two. As always, feel free to choose other colors or leave off the spots for less color changes. This one was one of my harder ones to design just right. In the end I like it though. I hope you enjoy it too.
