I was inspired to make this adorable unicorn pattern because, even though my two girls are all grown-up now, they are both Unicorns…magical and amazing!! This pattern can be made into a blanket, baby blanket, afghan, lap blanket, throw, or even a large wall hanging or pillow. It is made using the Classic C2C crochet, which uses 6 chain stitches and 3 double crochets per increase, and 3 chain stitches and 3 double crochets per square. It also involves colors changes.
