This lap blanket went to the Prayer Shawl Ministry at church. I started it as a stash buster but, of course, had to purchase more yarn to finish it. I used 'Loops and Threads" yarn and a size H hook to make block 97 from Jan Eaton's book, 200 Crochet Blocks, with the diagonal pattern as the basic block. I then made a few different patterns to break it up a bit.

Here's my grannified baby blanket for great nephew Benjamin with a peek-a-boo owl in one corner--just for fun! Another stash buster that required a purchase or two is a collection of basic granny squares in white and shades of blue and green with some variegated here and there. Most of it is Bernat DK weight worked with a size G hook.
I'm now using more stash to crochet a shawl for our Prayer Shawl Ministry. How did I acquire
so much blue yarn?

Hi Pooch! Oh, they are both very cozy! The Prayer Shawl Ministry is such a loving endeavor.
Such lovely blankets, I love the little owl detail on the baby blanket.
The blankets are lovely - I love the little owl.

Wonderful blankets!
I like your blankets. That basic square looks like a great pattern. I just a finished a prayer shawl, too, of hexagons from my sport yarn stash.
Beautiful!
