Pattern Inspiration

I’m on a blanket kick as of late and I’m loving making blankets out of some of my popular stitch patterns from previous sweater or accessory designs.

My first blanket design from a previous pattern is the Flowers & Showers Blanket!

I was inspired by the fun stitch combos and changes in the Flowers & Showers Pullover pattern and thought it would be adorable as a blanket!

Baby Blanket Details

This crochet baby blanket pattern comes with instructions for a baby blanket, but also has a chart with stitch counts for every size up to a King size blanket!

The Yarn

The crochet pattern calls for worsted (#4) weight yarn. I used Yarnspirations Caron Cakes for my blanket.

Caron Cakes are fun, self striping cakes of yarn that are 100% acrylic. They are great for baby and kids blankets because they have so many fun color combos to choose from!

This project uses a fun stitch pattern that works up quickly. The blanket would make a great gift for a baby shower or the holidays. I think it would even be a great seller for craft fairs or in your shop!

The pattern difficulty is labeled as Easy.

The sizing for this blanket is 27″ x 33″ and takes about 600 yards of worsted weight (#4) yarn. More yarn will be needed if you make the larger sizes.

You can upgrade to the pdf to get the stitch counts for sizes child to king size, in addition to the baby blanket!
