    My mum was an avid crocheted and made my daughter a cardigan in this stitch when she was a baby, it looked fantastic and kept her so warm. I didn't realise the pattern was so old.

    😮 One of the church grandmothers made my baby a blanket and for the life of me, I couldn't figure out the stitch. It was this one! How wonderful! Thank you ❤
    She used that yarn, too, but in lavender. She gave me the ball with the blanket and I was able to get a pair of booties and a 9-12 month dress out of it, with plenty left over still. That's really a value yarn!

    Hi, Cortina. New sub here, I crochet(beg,intermediate) I like the vintage crochet you show and do. I did a baby blanket with a stitch pattern bag-o-day tutorialed, so similar as this one, except I think it went 2 sc on beg and end, ch 2 turn, sc 1st st, 3dc next sc stitch, etc, that's not the whole pattern but it works up almost exactly like the one you showed . Made a beautifull baby blanket. Well GOD BLESS see you on the tube 🙂 🙏.

    Loved this! I am currently trying to finish a blanket for my neice. I did one for her older child. My grandmother found a typed up pattern for a top and it was titled just shell top. She worked up a swatch to figure out the stitch and instead of making the top, did an afgahn. The stitch is very simple but if you do each row in a different color, it becomes very cool. I am doing this one in just two colors white on one side and blue on the other. One side of the blanket is blue with white showing through and the other white with blue showing. so the look is versed and looks like two different blankets in one when finished. You can just cut the yarn at the end of the row and add more fringe when finished but on a baby blanket, I don't like fringe so I just work over the tail from the previous row. The stitch is just a sc in first st, dc in next st, and a triple crochet in the next st, and repeat, always working in the loop, on the next row you do the same but you are always sc in a triple, dc in a dc and a triple in a sc. I don't know the year of the pattern. I learned to crochet from her and she learned from her mom etc. Some of her terms are English and some are American. I've had to watch some of her patterns to figure out which they are written in. I am 66 now and she was 13 in the early 20's. Between moving, storage, and age, I do not have many of her patterns left. She taught me to do the ripple stitch and I made a shawl using that as my first project in the late 60's or early 70's.

Only the yoke is double-strand, the body is Crazy Stitch/Shells....(to be continued)...
