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! 

Part 5 - Joining the Squares using the Simulated Braided Join Method




Part 6 Final Border Details and Finishing!



If you want to follow my border. 
1 Round each of -Desert Glaze, Yellow, Mid Green, Peacock, Hot Rose
Ending with one Round of Ivory. Per video instructions. 

Here is a look at my finished product!

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. 
What would you like to see? 

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

Calleigh's Clips Baby Blanket Mini C2C Graphgan - Square 5 - Turtle

Happy Day! It's time for our next square! This one is pretty special to me and has unique coloring. Feel free to use more traditional colors if you desire. Now remember I designed each square after my logo which is why this turtle is so colorful. You could even leave out the little dots on the shell for less color changing if you desire. 

Turtles are a favorite around here as it was one of my 1st ever designs to go viral around the inter-webs! I've literally sold 1000's of patterns and made 100's of turtle sets! It will always have a special place in my heart. You can see that design below.

Calleigh's Clips Baby Blanket Mini c2c Graphgan - Square 2 - Tree


 I hope you are excited for square #2! It's a tree. I enjoyed making this square because of minimal color changes. It's simple but fun! You can jazz it up by adding some extra dots of color in the tree if you wanted for apples, oranges or other fruit by filling in the squares you desire. 
This is where you can get creative and unique. 

Here is a link to the 1st square, full materials list and Project details! 


SQUARE #2 Tree

Hook : G-HOOK (4.00mm)

Each Square measures around 8x8 inches
Final project measures : Approx 28 x 28 inches

Gauge isn't essential! Whew! LOL! I know you wouldn't make a swatch anyways. haha! 

Colors needed : Ivory,  Mid Green, & Toasted Almond
**You will only need a tiny bit of the Toasted Almond color (light brown). It will only be used it in this square so a very small amount of a brown shade you have will work to with out having to buy a full skein if you would like. 

*Each Square on the graph represents one square in the mini c2c stitch
