The Bobbles and Stripes Blanket is an easy crochet pattern, perfect for enthusiastic beginners as it uses a variety of basic crochet stitches and easy color changes. Full instructions and the pattern repeat are included to make the blanket ANY size. I want you to succeed in making this blanket and LOVE it!

In this PDF pattern, you will find:

  • A detailed 63-page tutorial with 116 step-by-step color photos that teach you exactly how to crochet this blanket (including photos showing you where to place your hook and stitch!)
  • Instructions provided for body of the blanket, border, tassels, and fastening off/weaving in all yarn tails
  • A comprehensive supply list, including yardage estimates for the sample blanket’s size of 37.5”x38.5”; please note that yardage estimates for blanket dimensions other than the sample are not provided
  • Tips that are written as if I am teaching a good friend, so you will encounter minimal abbreviations or crochet jargon
  • Instructions written in US terms
  • NOTE: The photo tutorial is included after the written pattern; I recommend either printing out the entire pattern and placing the pages side by side so you can view the photos and text at the same time, or printing only the written pattern and referencing the photos on your device as needed.

Although the instructions are very detailed, I recommend you be familiar with the following stitches that are used in this blanket:

  • Foundation chain stitches
  • Slip stitches
  • Single crochet stitches
  • Half double crochet stitches
  • Double crochet stitches

This cozy blanket is made from alternating rows to create a beautifully textured pattern. I used Caron Simply Soft yarn from Yarnspirations (a worsted weight yarn), but I encourage you to experiment with different yarns to find one that fits your personal style! If you are searching for yarns similar to Caron Simply Soft, I recommend exploring Yarn Sub (https://yarnsub.com/), a free and independent tool to help crocheters find the perfect yarn substitutes! The blanket is finished with a simple border along all four sides, complemented by a jumbo multicolored tassel on each corner. The finished baby blanket featured in this pattern’s photos measures 37.5” x 38.5.”

Complete pattern support is available if you have any questions along the way; simply email me at hello@stitcheryandco.com! This pattern was thoughtfully tested by a dedicated team of crocheters prior to publishing.
