Afghans and Blankets
This whimsical blanket is made by combining my Windy Square and Pinwheel Square patterns with 2 different joining techniques and a simple striped border. The puff stitches, cables, Jacobs ladders, and 3D pinwheels add lots of texture for baby to play with, while the back side of the blanket is smooth against babys skin. Its made with Anne Geddes Baby yarn and comes out really soft and squishy. This yarn comes in whole range of colors, and the pattern includes some suggestions for alternate color combinations.

Braided Cables Square
Afghans and Blankets
"Braided Cables Square is a great project for those who would like to dip their toes in the world of Tunisian crochet cables. The repetitive pattern allows for sufficient practise of the technique creating a beautiful texture reminiscent of braided hairstyles. The Cables Square is worked flat, RS facing from right to left. The stitch count refers to the number of lps on hook on FP. There are 3 cable st patterns running in parallel with sts being crossed in the same row every 2nd row. Work tks sts in rows where sts cross over slightly looser otherwise the cables will look flat and stretched. "
Soft And Sweet Textured Velvet Crochet Blanket
Afghans and Blankets
"This soft and sweet textured velvet crochet blanket feels like it should be used in an expensive hotel SPA. Use modern crochet stitches paired with Bernat Baby Velvet yarn to crochet this luxurious throw. Soft and Squishy Afghan The combination of front post double crochet and back post double crochet paired with this silky yarn create a soft and squishy Afghan. When my daughter ran her hands across this blanket, she snuggled her face against the yarn. She said the fluffy and soft blanket was the plushest feeling one yet. We think it is because of the added texture created by the crochet stitches and the fluffy yarn. Pair this bulky yarn with the right stitch and you have a winner. The pattern is a two-row repeat consisting of a row of single crochet, which ads a bit of stability to the entire project. The next row uses a special stitch pattern alternating the front post double crochet and back post double crochet stitches."
