Stitching Instructions for the Tulip Blanket Trim:
Row 1:

- Start by attaching the yarn to the edge of your blanket. You can do this by slip stitching into any corner or along the side.
- Chain 1 (this counts as your first sc).
- Work sc evenly across the edge of the blanket, making sure the number of sc stitches is even, so your tulips will be evenly spaced.
Tulip Motif:

- Starting the Tulip:
- In the next stitch, chain 3 (this counts as the first dc).
- In the same stitch, work 2 more dc (making a cluster of 3 dc in total).
- Turn your work, ch 2, and work 3 dc in the next space (this creates the petal shape).
- Repeat the same process to form the remaining petals of the tulip.
- Creating the Tulip:
- Chain 5 (this will form the stem of your tulip).
- Join with a sl st into the next space on your blanket’s edge.
- Repeat this tulip motif across the edge of your blanket, keeping the tulips evenly spaced.
Row 2:

- After completing the tulip trim around the entire blanket, fasten off the yarn and weave in the ends securely using a darning needle.
- For the final row, you can add an optional border by working 1 sc in each stitch across the edges, adding a delicate finishing touch to your blanket.
Finishing:

- Once you’ve completed the tulip motifs, trim any loose yarn ends and secure them.
- If desired, add additional rows of sc or dc stitches along the edge to make the trim fuller or more textured.
- Weave in all remaining ends carefully using a darning needle.
Congratulations! You’ve now completed your Tulip Blanket Trim. Enjoy the vibrant and fresh look it adds to your blanket.
