Receiving Blanket for an Infant

Skill level: Beginner
Dimensions: measures 27" x 27" including shell stitch

Step 1: Using one strand of yarn, secure yarn to anchor peg of loom. E wrap up one side of loom, around end, and down other side. Turn on last peg and wrap going opposite direction. When you have two rows wrapped on the loom, knit by pulling the bottom loop over top loop.

Step 2: Continue wrapping and knitting for 100 rows to make square. To stabilize this loose weave, do single crochet around entire shawl. Crochet 2 single crochet stitches in between each row and 2 single crochet stitches in between each knitted end. Finish with simple shell stitch around single stitch.

Step 3: Create border around shawl. To create the stitch on the sample, chain 3 dc* in same stitch. Skip 2 stitches and dc 4 times in next stitch. Continue around shawl, skipping 2 stitches and doing 2 dc in first row and skipping 2 stitches and doing 4 dc in next stitch. For next row, do dc's in middle of shells.
