In other words, we are taking whichever color we aren’t using at the moment, holding it straight along the back of our work and crocheting over it until we are ready to use it again. This Modern Hearts Baby Blanket is made in the same way that we usually make our gingham blankets, by using tapestry crochet and carrying yarn as we work so we can easily switch colors.
