Very simple and beginner friendly. This crochet baby blanket features the double crochet stitch. The pattern is a row of double crochets then a row of double crochets that cross over each other. This creates a gorgeous texture that makes the blanket look more complicated than it is! This blanket works up fast and can easily be made smaller or larger by increasing or decreasing the amount of starting chains. A very fun simple project that you will enjoy making!

I made this crochet baby blanket pattern in about a day and a half, just working on it in the evenings as I watched TV. I absolutely love how cozy and plush this baby blanket is and that it only took me a little while to make. Because this blanket was made with the scraps that I had, it was also an awesome stash buster and helped clear out a lot of space to use this thick yarn. If you make yours using up your stash, it may look a little different just depending on what you have, but you can also use this pattern for a number of other yarns and colors! It's a really versatile blanket and it's all HDC, perfect for an easy "break" project!

This blanket is designed with a grouping of simple stitches combined to produce a lovely texture that is completely reversible. The blanket looks great in solid colors as well as stripes. I chose to make wide bold color block stripes, but you could do this in any combination you like. I sized this as a baby blanket at approximately 32” x 42”, but I provide the stitch multiple in the pattern so you can adjust it larger or smaller. Designed in worsted weight yarn.
