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 a little longer than a normal baby 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!

Materials:

  • 1220 Yards of Worsted Weight Yarn - I used Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Yarn. About one and ⅔ skeins of Ivory, 1 full skein of Dark Raspberry, and about ¾ skein of Rosy Cheeks
  • M13/9mm Crochet Hook
  • Tapestry Needle for Weaving in Ends

Material Notes:
Chunky/Bulky yarn will also work since this blanket is made using two strands held together.

You may opt to purchase two skeins of the same color and hold the strands both from the center pull, but I did it the hard way and held the strands from either end of the skein.

Time Spent:
I worked up this blanket in just over 5.5 hours, including the weaving of my ends.

Measurements:
30.5” Wide by 36.25” in Length with Border

Gauge:
2 Strands of I Love This Yarn, and M13/9mm Hook - 11 DC by 6 Rows = 5” x 4.5”

Abbreviations:

  • SC - Single Crochet
  • HDC - Half Double Crochet
  • DC - Double Crochet
  • Dc3tog - Double Crochet Three Stitches Together to Decrease (Explained)
