I made these two blankets for twin girls who have a "Jungle" nursery theme.  

This is done with traditional C2C using "I love this yarn" in grey mist, greybeard, cherry blossom, light sage, and black.  The border is single crochet around once in the background color, half double crochet in grey mist once around, and then half double crochet one more time around in the background color.  

It's a pretty large blanket, but I like that it will grow with the girls.  If you have difficulty downloading the pattern, please email me and we'll figure out a way to get it to you.
