The Camellia Baby Blanket crochet pattern is a beautiful and textured unisex baby blanket!

Pattern Details:
I designed the Camellia Blanket with the Preemie Challenge in mind. This blanket is a very simple one row repeat with two options for trim, making it gender neutral.
The Yarn
The Camellia crochet baby blanket pattern uses DK (#3) weight yarn. I used Paintbox Simply DK. It is one of my favorite acrylic yarns! It is so soft, machine washable, affordable, and comes in a large variety of colors! The skeins are quite large also, at 302 yards each! I used the colorway Tea Rose (142) for the sample pictured in this post.

This pattern is rated Easy in pattern difficulty. It is worked in simple rows and uses very basic crochet stitches.
