Pattern Description:
This is a beautiful pattern of a blanket I designed years ago. It's an American Flag in all its glory! I've been crocheting for the past 40+ years and have been designing my own pieces for about 30 years. I've also been selling my creations for about that long. I recently started selling my patterns, because I've receive a ton of requests from my fellow crocheters. The pattern I'm offering here comes with complete instructions and a photo of the finished piece. The stitches are not complicated (in my opinion), but it can get a little complicated when you add the stars to the blue field. You must follow the photo exactly for the placement of the stars. Other than that I loved making this blanket, and I've made and sold a few of them over the years. I'm sure you'll enjoy creating America The Beautiful, as much as I do. Happy Crocheting!

I've taught myself many different crafts over the years, but I learned crochet from a true pro, my grandma. I've been in the craft business for about 30 years. I owned a reality shop, but the overhead became too much for me so I decided to put my business online. I was the owner of JewelsDesigns. This shop was recently closed and my new Blog was set up, http://conniespdfpatterns.om and soon I will be opening my new website: http://www.PDF-Patterns.com in the near future. I love helping and promoting my fellow artists and crafter's, and I do a lot of this cross-promoting on my site, blog, page and in my Face Book Groups. In July I will be starting my new course, Crochet Lessons-From The Beginning, this is a free course and everyone is welcome to participate. Just click on the "Follow" button in the top right hand column and your in. On our new website we will be selling our designer downloadable Patterns, Tutorial, eBooks and Lessions, we also hope to offer Hard Copy versions as well.Thank You for allowing me to bring my love of crafts to you and to Craftsy!
