Rae Anne's Blanket - 15in Crochet Blanket

This blanket pattern is written to give you the least amount of ends to work in at the end of the blanket. You can just do it in solid colors or color change your own way. I hate working in ends so when I can just slip stitch or chain them up from the previous rows :)

Yarn used for blanket in photo:
