The Lydia Blanket is primarily intended to be a baby blanket, and uses the Scheepjes Cotton 8 yarn, perfect for baby's sensitive skin. Of course, because of the repeating pattern, you can also make a much larger blanket or throw project out of this. The stitch is light, airy and a great combination of warmth and breathability, and, last, but not least, very, very attractive.

Augustine Chunky Blanket Throw
"This blue color reminded me so much of the rich tropical ocean, that it inspired me to do an open crochet variation of "shells" throw. And I am in LOVE with how it came out! Simplistic in design this throw blanket will work up very fast for you. And the breathability from the spaces make it just the right amount of cozy without being smothered in wool. Not that being smothered in wool is a bad thing :-) "

Spring Meadow Baby Blanket
The Spring Meadow Baby Blanket is a beginner-friendly pattern with so many possibilities. It's light and airy, but cozy and comfortable. The design was inspired by the gorgeous Paintbox Yarn color packs by LoveCrochet. The time it takes to crochet this blanket depends on how fast you crochet, how much time you have to dedicate, and the size of the yarn and hook used. For this particular design, I used a medium weight yarn and a 6mm crochet hook. This baby blanket primarily uses single crochet, but it works up a lot quicker than what you'd expect!
