I love how this chunky blanket in the pictures below was made using creme yarn, because it allows the texture to really stand out, don't you think? What's more, it makes the ultimate, timeless baby gift. But watch out, once you feel how soft it is, there's no way you won't want to make one for yourself too!

Modern Double Crochet V-Stitch Chunky Blanket
This modern double crochet v-stitch chunky blanket is a wedding gift. I have had this Caron One Pound yarn in my stash for a while now. Thought it was time to get something made with it. The blanket had to be large enough to cover a queen sized bed. As you can see from the photo, it is large enough. Not too large though so that one or two people can snuggle under it. Additionally, this had to be warm enough to be the go-to blanket on our cold winter nights. Using two strands of yarn makes this a fun and chunky blanket. It also makes for a very warm blanket. I will miss having this cover me up while crocheting when it is below zero here this week. Brrrr. The double crochet stitch is a quick stitch to master and once the pattern is started, there is really little need to count. For me, this makes for a great crochet pattern to work on while watching movies. I think this is a great beginner stitch once you have mastered the double crochet stitch. It is always easy to see where you need to insert your hook in the previous row.
Snow Drifter Chunky Crochet White Blanket Pattern
This chunky crochet blanket pattern makes a perfect timeless baby gift, but once you feel how soft it is, there's no way you won't want to make one for yourself too! It's chunky. It's delicate. It's modern. It's classic. What more could you ask for in an afghan? Yes, it also feels like it's made of clouds!
Snow Queen Blanket
This Snow Queen Blanket is the perfect pattern to make for the cold winter months. It's made using bulky yarn, so not only is it warm and cozy to use, but it works up quickly, as well. The lacy shells of this crocheted afghan give it a light and delicate look despite the bulky yarn. You'll feel like a queen as you sit in your living room watching the snow fall.
Timeless Teal Chevron Blanket
There is something timeless and classic about a good chevron blanket. I have made my Timeless Teal Chevron Blanket so many times for baby showers that I could probably crochet one in my sleep. This blanket is honestly a huge hit no matter what colour I make it in. I have even made it in colours that I wasn't particularly drawn to and ended up loving it so much I kept it for my daugther. Using Bernat Blanket Stripes yarn, (my go-to blanket yarn) which is a super bulky, size 6 yarn, this blanket works up in a jiffy. I have made one in two evenings or about 6 to 8 hours.
Fast And Easy Speckled Chunky Yarn Blanket
"Chunky Blanket Yarns are the absolute best to make soft and snuggly Blankets. I absolutely love the soft texture of these Blanket Yarns. Blankets that use bulkier yarn are always a favorite of crocheters. Chunky crochet blanket patterns are great because they work up fast. Another thing about crocheted Chunky Yarn Blankets that makes them a favorite is that they are usually made of simple stitches."
