The Modwen Baby Blanket is a beautiful Tunisian crochet baby blanket item that is a pleasure to make and a pleasure to use. It features an interesting woven like pattern that is crocheted in columns using 3 colours and join as you go technique.  

This is a fun project for when you would like to work colourwork but not having to have more than 2 balls of yarn on the go at any one time! The chunky weight yarn makes it an amazing project that can be whipped up in a few evenings!

To create this beautiful Tunisian crochet baby blanket you will need to master (or already know) these stitches and techniques:

Chain, Tunisian crochet technique (alternating forward and return passes), Tunisian simple stitch (tss), Tunisian slip stitch (tslst), Tunisian simple stitch bind-off, blocking.

Notes:

Similar bulky weight yarns may be substituted; please check gauge.

Number of loops on hook equals number of sts for row counting after Return Pass.

The blanket is worked flat with RS always facing from bottom up and left to right in columns of squares.
