Textured Ridges Baby Blanket
"The Textured Ridges Baby Blanket is a snuggly warm blanket for super bulky yarn. Beginners will find the simple pattern easy to master after working a few rows. And, it is a great pattern for more advanced crocheters who want a fun and relaxing project. If you use a tweedy yarn, you will get a blanket with a wintery tweedy look. Choosing a solid color yarn works well too and makes the blanket look soft and squishy. The free pattern includes one special stitch that is explained in the instructions. "
Purple Ombre Security Blanket
"This is a great pattern if you want to crochet a quick baby gift. The smaller size security blanket is still big enough to show off beautiful stitches and colors. Using an ombre yarn for the blanket is super fun. The lace pattern in the blanket includes both shells and v-stitches. If you would like a larger blanket, you can adjust the width by using the stitch multiple and add additional rows to the length."

Berry Bliss Baby Blanket
Babies love both texture and visual patterns. The Berry Bliss Baby Blanket combines both of those to create a fun blanket that your new baby will love to touch and feel. The pattern is worked over 3 different rows. The row repeats are not always in the same order which creates a different visual effect for a nice texture. You will need to be familiar with chains, dc, and the puff stitch (or be comfortable trying new stitches).
