Remember the 'white puffs vs coloured puffs' blanket? This is her all grown up now!

Finished this gift for my mothers 60th birthday JUST in time! Today is her birthday, and my brother is picking me up in a little bit to go see her. The shell border took SO much longer than I expected, and I'm really glad I didn't make the blanket as long as I wanted to, or I would have lost yarn chicken haha (see last picture). I am so so happy shes finally done! All Ive got to do is trim a few of the ends I didnt crochet over all the way. I hope my mom loves it and sees how much effort Ive put into it.

Yarn: Scheepjes Colourcrafter (white) & Lola from Wibra, 100% acrylic. Hook size 4.

Pattern (US terms, the tutorial I used was a bit unclear in some parts so I wrote it out myself):

Row 1: Make an odd number of chains

Row 2: SC in the second chain from the hook. SC all the way through. Chain 1 & turn.

Row 3-5: Start the row with a SC. Then BLO SC the rest of the row. End with another regular SC. Chain 1 & turn.

Row 6 & 7: Start this row with a SC. Skip one stitch and SC. Then go back into the skipped stitch and make a puff stitch. End the row with another SC. Chain 1 & turn.

Row 8: SC all the way through. Chain 1 & turn.

Repeat from row 3.

NOTE ROW 5: If you want to change colours for the puffs, pull your colour B through the two loops of your last SC.

NOTE ROW 6&7: For this puff stitch, yarn over, pull up a loop 3 times. You'll have 7 loops on your hook. Yarn over, pull through 6. Yarn over, pull through the last one. For row 7, you SC into the stitch after the puff, and then make your next puff above the puff from the previous row. If you want to change colours for the SC rows, pull your colour A through the two loops of your last SC.

For the border I single crocheted all the way around 4 times, since the shells needed to be done in multiples of 4. I then made a shell border by doing SC, SK1, 6 DC in the same stitch, SK1 and repeat.
