This baby blanket is on the lighter side making it a great blanket for throughout the year.

Crochet this in one color as shown or use up your stash to work in pretty colors for both boys and girls."

It is a stash busting crochet project to use up all your odd bits and bobs of yarn and make it into something beautiful and useful at the same time! the patterns use aran/worsted weight yarn and 5 mm hook.

As one of my first jobs I worked in the activities department of a beautiful nursing facility. I was a young, thought-she-knew-it-all, 20 year old and Mae was a (then) 95 year old darling who always had her hair fixed just right, her favorite pearls around her neck, and you never saw her without her perfectly applied bright cherry lipstick. Oh, the stories Mae could tell! Mae was such a beautiful soul and I will always cherish our chats during activity time. This beautiful Chevron Blanket (available in 3 sizes) is for you, my dear friend."

Crochet this loop stitch chevron throw which is just the right size for keeping warm while curled up on the sofa. Perfect for intermediate crocheters or confident beginners looking for an interesting, textured crochet blanket project. This pattern uses a worsted weight yarn held double to make a warm, snuggly throw. The use of one colour throughout the project makes for a modern look while the stripes of crochet loop stitches add a hint of retro vintage. The yarn chosen is a wool / acrylic mix and is inexpensive but beautifully soft and cosy."

Is there anything that will bright up your day more than a rainbow blanket? I think not! This crochet blanket is so much fun and easy to make. Simply cast on, get into the groove of the pattern and cast off when you feel your blanket is long enough. For this rainbow blanket, simply use up scraps or buy some amazing colours especially for your project. I've depicted this crochet blanket as a rainbow blanket, but really.. you can make this blanket in any colour scheme you like. Have fun!"

I named this the crochet everybody blanket because it can be made to fit anyone and everyone's needs. The free written pattern can be adjusted for any size and style of blanket. Everyone from baby to the whole family at the park will be able to enjoy this one. Includes a free video tutorial as well, so it couldn't be more beginner friendly and accessible to everyone. I do recommend using natural fibers for baby blankets but otherwise, you can use any yarn you prefer. Enjoy!
