Crochet Latte Lapghan + Tutorial

Crochet Latte Lapghan

Have you tried the new Caron Latte Cakes yet?  It's a really soft yarn and the colors are very gentle.  I decided the Persimmon Blue Cakes I picked up would make a really nice comfort Crochet Latte Lapghan for a friend of mine in need of some love.  This is really just another #MG Modern Granny, but I wanted to show you how lovely this looks when crocheted with the Latte Cakes.

The yarn is very generous and I only needed 3 Cakes to make this 42" x 50" lapghan.

When you upload your project to The Crochet Crowd Stitch Social Group or Instagram, please use #MG or #ModernGranny so I can see what you have crocheted.  Follow me on Instagram @ jeannestein or on Facebook.  My designs can also be saved in your Ravelry favorites by following me HERE.
