Secret Garden Blanket Crochet Pattern Rounds 46-55

Can you believe we're working the final section before the boarder of the Secret Garden Blanket?  I have had so much fun working this blanket for a 3rd time in different colors!  My only regret is that I was so busy with work and life with kids that I wasn't able to sit down and weave in my ends as I wanted.  Sadly for me, this means that I have a bunch of ends to take care of when we're done.  Ugh, the thought!  Weaving in ends is my least favorite part of changing colors but I'll be so happy when it's complete.  I promise, this one is NOT going to end up in a WIP pile. So, here's your challenge...If you're like me and haven't sewn your ends in yet, get it done ASAP so it doesn't haunt you  lol.

If you're just finding this blanket pattern and would like to crochet your own, click the "Jump to beginning" button below.  This will take you to the first post where you'll find all the details and quick links to each sections instructions.

If you're ready to work your next section, continue scrolling below for the written instructions and scroll to the bottom for the video tutorial.
