Why AllFreeCrochetAfghanPatterns Loves This Pattern:
Our favorite part of this crochet blanket is the delicate stitch pattern that's on full display. The Duchess Lace Stitch, used throughout this afghan, is an elegant name for a stitch that features interlocking shells worked in a criss-cross diamond pattern.
The result is a diamond lace motif that, when paired with the classic rose and off-white shades of this crochet blanket, looks as regal as it does soft to the touch.
For anyone who might be intimidated by the thought of a lace motif, don't be! This one uses double crochets, slip knots and chains, so it's quick and easy to master.
