I will take better pictures tomorrow, including close-ups of the stitch pattern. I really like it, though. It makes a great, thick bathmat.
I first saw this crochet stitch (Sedge Stitch) at the Lion Brand website (http://www.lionbrand.com/). It is included in the free pattern for "Bark Sedge Stitch Washcloth." I used the stitch to make several dishcloths and thought I would try it for a blanket. It was beautiful in snow white, but I could tell it would be way too heavy for an adult-sized blanket, so serendipity turned it into a bathmat. Don't you just LOVE serendipity?
Anyway, here are the particulars:
Snow Bobbles Crocheted Bathmat Pattern
Size G crochet hook. 1 cone (785 yards, give or take) "Peaches & Creme" regular worsted in White.
Chain 123.
Row 1: skip two chains, work 2 dc in next chain, *skip 2 chains, work (sc, 2 dc), repeat from * to last three sts, skip two chains, sc. Turn.
Row 2: Chain 1, 2 dc in first sc, *skip 2 dc spaces, (sc 2 dc) in next sc space, repeat from *, sc in turning chain.
Continue to repeat Row 2 until the bathmat is the size you want or, like me, you almost run out of yarn. Save enough to do the finishing row:
Chain 1. Sc in the top the first two dc, chain 1. Continue to sc in the tops of the dcs, chaining one after each set of two. End.
Bathe. Drip. Enjoy.

Hey excellent website! Does running a blog like this
take a large amount of work? I've absolutely no understanding of coding however I had been hoping to start my own blog soon. Anyways, if you have any suggestions or tips for new blog owners please share. I understand this is off subject but I just had to ask. Thanks!

First off I would like to say excellent blog! I had a quick question that I'd like to ask if you don't mind.
I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your head prior to writing.
I have had difficulty clearing my mind in getting my ideas out.
I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10
to 15 minutes are generally lost simply just trying to figure out how to
begin. Any recommendations or tips? Thank you!
