However, for those of us with a slightly more traditional taste, this 2022 CAL is a beautiful project that makes use of that tried and true staple, the square. Nevertheless this will be a real heirloom and memorable pattern.

Modern Heirloom Baby Afghan
This is one of my favorite stitch patterns to use and it makes such a beautiful gift for an expecting mother. Recently, I learned how to make the linen stitch, which is also called the moss stitch, granite stitch, and the woven stitch. Once you learn the techniques, the crochet projects are endless. Today, though, we will be making the modern heirloom baby afghan and it is super easy.This baby afghan has a modern look to it, but at the same time, is a beautiful blanket to pass on as an heirloom-if it lasts that long. There is a row-by-row color list, as well as, a video tutorial of how to complete the stitch. Learn how to crochet over the end stitches for a finished look. Very easy to achieve.
Tried and True Beginner Blanket
I have been teaching beginners (read: novice/first time crocheters) to crochet for a couple of years. My favorite projects are any that include a super bulky yarn and a 15 mm hook. Why? These projects can be started and finished in one class and the beginner can leave with a hat on their head (or a cowl around their neck). I designed this blanket with the true beginner in mind. Maybe you took a class, or a friend taught you the single crochet. You’ve made a stack of hats, but you want more! This is the project for you. You will learn the four basic stitches and how to work in rows (working in rows is a beginner skill, but I don't like teaching it for a first time crocheter). I have added notes here and there to help guide you and give you an understanding on the basics of pattern-reading. I have also included a full photo tutorial for each stitch to help you along your way.
Heirloom Coverlet for Baby
However, if what you're after is a traditional design, full of lace, cables, puffs and shells, then this heirloom baby blanket is just the thing for you. To summarize, it uses many stitches, and is probably addressed to more advanced crocheters. Although, if you want to challenge yourself or simplify with repeated stitches there is room for that as well.

Heirloom Baby Blanket
Handmade baby blankets are a thoughtful gift for anyone expecting a child. This pattern makes a delicate lace fabric that would be perfect for an heirloom baby blanket. You could of course choose to make a throw and increase your foundation chain to make a larger version too. This blanket measures: 35 Inches X 42 Inches and if you would like to make it larger (or smaller) you can adapt your foundation chain to a multiple of 5 plus 3.
