Shortly after I taught myself to crochet, I fell in love with knit-look crochet. I can't knit a stitch to save my life so I'm always trying to incorporate stitches or stitch patterns into my designs that resemble knit stitches. The Abrielle Baby Blanket combines the easiest knit-look crochet stitch and a favorite textured stitch pattern of mine. I crocheted my baby blanket using two colors of yarn to create a wide striped blanket, but it's also gorgeous in a solid color.

This is a mock granny stitch afghan designed with Bernat Blanket yarn. You do not fasten off after every color change and will only have around 3 tails to weave in at the end. The stitch pattern was adjusted to work with the thickness of this yarn and to avoid leaving big holes. The result is a warm and squishy blanket that will keep your baby warm and snuggly. You can combine any 3 colors of your choice to make a blanket for a baby boy or a baby girl.

This is a fun and easy pattern to make. The yarn and colours that I used are mentioned in the blog post. I made this blanket with a crochet hook size 4mm but you can use any size you like. It will change the size of your blanket however, but it is very easy to adjust the pattern and to make the blanket in any size you like. Please note that the English pattern is below the Dutch pattern in the blog post.

Choose as many colors as you'd like for Granny's Vibe Blanket. This crochet pattern is intricate but wonderfully original and colorful.

Preparing for a new baby is lots of fun, and you need a soft yarn that is as easy to snuggle as the little one is. The teddy bear design is so cute, and it has an interesting pixelated style.

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.
