Baby Blanket Crochet Pattern

This is an easy blanket and the stitch could be worked for any size blanket and any weight yarn.  To work out how many chain you need for your blanket just crochet a length of chain to the desired width of your blanket making sure you have an odd number of chain.  When you have worked most of the 1st row check the width of your row and undo any excess chain but make sure you end with a double crochet.

Cot Blanket

Materials used

Size

36” x 54” or 91.5cm x 137cm

145 ch (Measured about 35” or 89cm after 1st row)

 

To make a different size always work an odd number of chain.

Row 1:  Work 1 tr in 4th ch from hook, (1 dc in next st, 1 tr in following st) repeat to last st, 1 dc in last st.  Turn.

Row 2: 3 ch, work 1 tr in same st as ch, (1 dc in front loop only of next st ‘in top of tr of previous row’, then 1 tr in following st) repeat to last st, work 1 dc in last st. Turn.

Repeat row 2 until your blanket is the desired length.  I worked green on my blanket for 29” or 74cm and then worked 14.5” or 37cm of blue.  If using 2 colours fasten off but if only using 1 colour don’t fasten off before the edging.

I work 2/3 of the blanket in green for the grass and then change to blue for the final 3rd.

Row 2: 3 ch, work 1 tr in same st as ch, (1 dc in front loop only of next st ‘in top of tr of previous row’, then 1 tr in following st) repeat to last st, work 1 dc in last st. Turn.

Repeat row 2 until your blanket is the desired length.  I worked green on my blanket for 23” or 58.5cm and then worked 11” or 28cm of blue.  If using 2 colours fasten off but if only using 1 colour don’t fasten off before the edging.

I work 2/3 of the blanket in green for the grass and then change to blue for the final 3rd.

Edging 

Join yarn to the beginning of one of the colours if using 2 colours or continue using yarn from main blanket if using 1 colour.

Row 1:  1 ch, work dc evenly along sides and ends and 2 dc into each corner st, changing colours when needed.  Join with a sl st in top of 1st st. 

Row 2:  1 ch, (work a joined dc over next 2 sts, 2 ch) repeat to end of row changing colours when needed.  Join with a sl st in top of 1st st.  Fasten off.
