Easy Crochet Baby Blanket Pattern
Materials
Any DK yarn and a 4mm hook.
If you’re making a baby blanket you will want approx 200g – 500g, just keep going till you run out of yarn, or save a bit for the border.
I’ve not written up a border for this as I’m not sure what border I will do yet. The format is UK crochet, not US, (please refer to a UK stitch guide, and not YouTube, if unsure of stitches!)
