New “Baby Pompon” Border

Blankets and Afghans . Patterns - Blankets and Afghans

It’s always so much fun to try a new and cute crochet idea!  So this week I designed the “Baby Pompon” Border for my “Soft and Cuddly” Baby Afghan.  It is a second border option for the afghan and I think you will really like it!  Now, I have added it to the free version of the afghan pattern available here on the blog, and I have also added it to the ad-free .pdf that is available in both my Etsy and Ravelry Shops.  But, don’t worry, if you have already purchased that pattern, I am including the instructions for the new border here in this post!!!  So, here it is!!

This border uses the “Puff Stitch”.

 

Directions for “Puff Stitch”.

Yarn over and insert the hook into the single crochet, yarn over and pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. (You now have 2 loops on the hook.). Yarn over and insert hook into the same single crochet, yarn over

and pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. (You now have 3 loops on the hook.). Yarn over and insert hook into the same single crochet, yarn over and pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. (You now have 4 loops on the hook.). Yarn over and insert hook into the same single crochet, yarn over and pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. ( You now have 5 loops on the hook.). Yarn over and insert hook into the same single crochet, yarn over and pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. (You now have 6 loops on the hook.). Yarn over and pull through all 6 loops on the hook. You will now have 1 loop on the hook. Slip stitch in the same single crochet.

The “Baby Pompon” Border

(The following 3 rows of edging are the same as for the border described above. The last row is the new portion!!

Edging Rows

Row 1: Ch 1. Work 2 sc in corner dc. Working down the side of the afghan, work 2 sc in each space all the way down the side of the afgan. Work 3 sc in the corner dc.

1 sc in each dc across the top of the afghan. Work 1 more sc in the dc space where you started this row. Slip stitch to first sc.

Row2: Ch2. Work 1 dc in same space as Ch2. Work1 dc in each sc all the way down the side of the afghan. Work 3 dc in the corner sc. Work 1 dc in each sc across

the bottom of the afghan. Work 3 dc in the corner dc. Work 1 dc in each sc up the side of the afghan. Work 3 dc in the corner dc. Work 1 dc in each sc across the top of the afghan. Work 1 more dc in the same space as the Ch 2. Slip stitch to Ch 2. Slip stitch into the same single crochet. (This completes 1 puff stitch.)

Row 3: Ch 1. Work 2 sc in corner dc. Working down the side of the afghan, work 1 sc in each space all the way down the side of the afgan. Work 3 sc in the corner dc. Work 1 sc in each dc across the bottom of the afgan. Work 3 sc in the corner dc. Work 1 sc in each space up the side of the afghan. Work 3 sc in the corner dc. Work 1 sc in each dc across the top of the afghan. Work 1 more sc in the dc space where you started this row. Slip stitch to first sc.

Row 4: Ch 1.

Turn entire blanket so that you are now going to go the opposite direction than you were working Rows 1 – 3.
Slip stitch into the first 2 single crochet. Work 1 “puff stitch” into the next sc. *Slip stitch into the next single crochet. Work 1 “puff stitch” into the next single crochet.*. Repeat from * to * all the way around the blanket.
When you reach the last stitches, slip stitch to first slip stitch and fasten off.  Weave in loose ends!!

Enjoy!  And, I hope you like it!

Chris
