Available in Uk and US Terminology

The Pastel World of Dragonflies

The Pastel World of Dragonflies is a textured crochet blanket made from long, narrow panels featuring dragonflies with embossed outlines created using post stitches.

The panels are joined using my own Jacob’s Ladder Join, with ladder loops also incorporated into the border between the small flower squares in each corner. A unique picot edging completes the design.

The pattern includes short instructional videos demonstrating the Jacob’s Ladder Join, the additional ladder techniques used in the border and the finishing edge.

The pattern is written in both US and UK crochet terminology.

All Auburncraft Crochet Design patterns are original designs, fully tested by dedicated pattern testers before publication.
