I am in love with the combination of pinks and cream here, and how the edging turned out! It gives me a vintage feel. This blanket would be a great baby shower gift, or as part of your nursery. The size makes it great for changing baby's diaper, tummy time and cuddling. It's also longer than my I Love This Soft Baby Ripple Blanket so it'll work great for toddlers and children also. I put it on the legs to see, and it covered them comfortably with my feet left hanging out. Now, I think I want one to use when I am sitting up in bed crocheting!"

This blanket was designed primarily for teaching the basics of Tunisian crochet. The squares are in order of complexity and start with Beginner level stitches leading into Advanced Beginner techniques towards the end.

The joining technique used to join the squares will mask the difference.
