Crochet Baby Blanket

Here's an easy crochet project using the double crochet V-stitch and single crochet.    You can use this stitch to create scarves, blankets, and hats.

I used the v-stitch throughout the project and then made 3 rows of single crochet around the edges.    I used Red Heart Soft Solids in Yellow for the body and in Maize color for the edges.

You can find a very good V-stitch tutorial here
