"Blankets are a necessary part of life. So, you might as well have one you like. The little ripple crochet baby blanket is sweet and simple. It would be a great present for a newborn. Baby blankets are often the first object a baby touches. They get swaddled up in one right after they're born. For this reason, I always recommend making easy crochet baby blankets for hospitals to keep on hand. Crochet baby blanket patterns come in so many different designs and styles. They usually come in a standard baby blanket size and similar color palettes. The baby blanket dimensions could easily be changed to suit your needs."
