My Crochet Bible Stories Blanket – designed by Joanita Theron
A fun ‘quiet’ crochet Bible Stories blanket/or playbook inspired by stories from the Bible. An interactive playbook/play-mat or blanket.
A Scraps of Yarn Project:
The perfect project to do to use up all your bits and pieces from your leftover yarn.
This is completely optional, and it can be worked in coordinated colors.
Difficulty Level | Skills Required
– Easy to Intermediate
Basic stitches in simple variations, simple repeats, color changes, shaping and finishing.
You will need to know basic stitches like SC (single crochet) and DC (double crochet).
Lots of smaller pieces are crochet first and then attached.
Materials
- Hook – 3, 50 mm (E) & 4, 00 mm (G)
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
- Extras required given with each playbook page instructions.
Yarn:
Yarn – any DK (Acrylic or Cotton) is recommended.
Weight – DK (11 wpi) 3: Light.
For this project I used an assortment of colors – there are no preset color coordinates.
Yarn Substitute:
Using the same type of yarn throughout the project is recommended. The pattern suggests DK yarn, but you are not limited to this type of yarn. Any yarn can be used if you take into consideration your sizing for the project will differ.
Tension | Gauge
Gauge is NOT necessary for this project to be perfect.
Size
Final Blanket Size including border –
Approx. Length = 40 inch / 100 cm Width = 30 inches / 76 cm
