Free Crochet Pattern: Wylie Baby Blanket

I have been wanting to make a granny and v-stitch blanket for a while so...here it is! This is baby blanket that I came up with for a friend who is due to have a baby girl this summer. It was super easy to make and really fun because of how colorful it is...though that does leave a lot a ends to weave in! It could be made in any number of colors or even solid.

My goal here was to make a square blanket that it bigger than my previous baby blankets. I wanted something that the baby could grow into but could still be used in the stroller now. My finished size is 38.5" by 38.5". Let's get to the pattern :)

Materials needed:

• U.S. H- 5.0 MM crochet hook

• Worsted weight yarn- used here:

-Color A: Willow Wash in Cream- 3 skeins

-Color B: Willow Wash in Red Apple- 1 skein
-Color C: Willow Wash in Azalea- 1 skein

-Color D: Willow Wash in Little Flower- 1 skein

-Color E: Willow Wash in Clear Water- 1 skein
-Color F: Willow Wash in Turquoise- 1 skein

• Tapestry needle for sewing in the ends

Abbreviations:

• ch= chain

• sc= single crochet
• reverse sc= reverse single crochet

• dc= double crochet

• sl st= slip stitch

Finished size:

• 38.5" by 38.5"

Blanket:

Ch 93 (VERY loosely)

1: (dc, ch 1, dc) in the 4th ch from the hook. *[skip 1 ch, (dc, ch 1, dc) in the next]. Repeat from the * across. Finish with a dc in the last ch.

Repeat rows 2 and 3 until you reach desired length, end on a row 3.

Border:

1: Continue with the color used in your last blanket row, ch 1, turn, make 3 sc in each of the ch1-spaces across. Make 3 sc in the top ch of the beginning ch 3 from the previous row (corner made). Continue around, sc evenly down the long side of the blanket, make 3 sc in the corner, continue across the bottom, sc evenly across, make 3 sc in the corner, continue up the other long side, sc evenly up this side, 3 sc in the corner and then join with a sl st to the beginning sc. Bind off.

2: Join Red Apple with a standing sc anywhere, sc around the entire blanket, making 3 sc in each corner. Join with a sl st to the beginning standing sc. Bind off.

Free Crochet Pattern: Emerson Car Seat Cover or Baby Blanket

I love the concept of car seat covers/canopies. When you use a regular blanket instead, it is always falling off and you are constantly picking it up off the ground. A car seat cover covers and protects your baby for cold weather, rain, snow, bright sun, you name it and it hooks on the handle bar so it ALWAYS stays in place! I absolutely love it and if you have a baby in an infant seat, you NEED to make one of these to see how great it is. PLEASE REMEMBER, it is dangerous to have your baby covered up in their car seat for long periods of time. This cover is NOT meant for that. This cover is only meant to be used when you are walking from your house to your car, store to car, school to car, and the like...it is meant to protect your baby from rain, snow, strong wind as you are walking from the places mentioned above. It is not meant to be left on the car seat when you are driving, sitting somewhere, going to a long walk or stroller ride, or anywhere else for longer than a minut

Free Crochet Pattern: Valentine's Day Headbands

I made these adorable Valentine's headbands for my daughters. For three free crochet headband patterns and how I made them, see below! I saw the cutest heart headband floating around Pinterest and decided to make one for each of my daughters. The tutorial for the heart headband is here and the original heart pattern is here . But instead of using an elastic headband, I decided to use a crochet one. I made some of these last year for my girls to wear at Easter and they turned out well so I was excited to make more. Here are my hearts: For the red one, I used Vanna's Choice yarn in Scarlet with a K hook. For the darker pink, I used Red Heart Soft Baby Steps in Strawberry with an I hook. For the lighter pink, I used Vanna's Choice yarn in Pink with a G hook. All of the headbands begin the same way. If you are using 2 hair ties you have to join them together before you start joining the yarn onto the hair tie. If you are using one hair tie, you can beg

Free Crochet Pattern: The Greene Pom Pom Scarf

I have been working on fall/winter items for my kids lately. I came up with this scarf (there's a matching hat coming soon too!). I love the color block look. I showed my daughter yarn and asked her to pick out 2 colors and then I added the cream. I used Cascade Yarns Pacific here. I am loving this yarn lately. I have used it to make hats, blankets, amigurumi, you name it...it is quickly becoming one of my go to yarns. This scarf is super simple. I have written the pattern in 3 sizes but you can easily customize it to be any size you want. I use a pom-pom maker for my pom-poms but you can find a tutorial online if you don't have a pom-pom maker or if you want to make it without one. Materials needed: • U.S. I/9- 5.5 MM crochet hook • Cascade Yarns Pacific in 3 colors- used here: 37 Clover, 52 Geranium, 01 Cream (you can easily substitute any other yarn, your finished size may change though) • Tapestry needle for sewing in the ends • Clover pom-po

Love it! Thank you for the pattern. The group that I belong to knits/crochets warm items for various charity organaizations. This will be great for that. Just wondering what the stitch multiple is so I can make it a bit bigger (they prefer closer to 45x45). Thank you :-)

Hello, I was wondering what row you change colors? Is it at the end of row 2? How does that part work?

I'm finished with the body of the blanket, and you're right...it's ALOT of ends to weave in!! Did you weave the color change ends into blanket before working the border?? I'm afraid of it being bulky
