Crochet Textured Baby Blanket Pattern Information

I used a cross stitch variation in between rows of single crochet stitches and single crochet eyelets. It is somewhat similar to the vine street crochet baby blanket, except the cross stitch is worked with a half double crochet and a puff stitch. Plus, the eyelets in this pattern give it a slightly more lacy texture.

Unfortunately, there is a slant in the stitch pattern, but you can steam block that out if you want. Just use a low setting so that you don’t ruin the yarn.

Skill Level: Intermediate

Materials

Yarn: Bernat Baby Sport (Light, #3; 100% acrylic; 350g/12.3oz; 1256yds/1148m) Color: Baby White, 2 balls.
Crochet Hook: G 4.00mm.
Tools: Measuring Tape, Scissors, Yarn Needle.

If making a baby blanket, choose a soft yarn suitable for babies. I chose Bernat Baby Sport, which comes in large balls and is baby-friendly, economical, and also easy to care for. It is a popular yarn and is available in most yarn stores.

I had two balls of white and used only a small amount from the second ball. If you have more than one color on hand, this blanket pattern can easily be worked in pretty stripes or blocks of colors.
