Tip:
Experiment with different yarn weights for varying textures and finishes
Materials:
- Yarn: Himalaya Everyday (100% acrylic anti-pilling) in white, blue, and beige
- Crochet hook: 3 mm
- Scissors
Abbreviations:
- ch: chain
- sc: single crochet
- hdc: half double crochet
- inc: increase
- bp sc: back post stitch using single crochet
- st(s): stitch(es)
Making Process:
Starting the Blanket:
- Make a foundation chain of 105 (a multiple of 2 + 1).
- Begin Row 1 with 1 ch, and then work 1 sc into each st across, totaling 105 sts.
- For Row 2, start with 2 chs. Make a pattern of “skip 1, work (1 hdc, 1 ch, 1 hdc) into the next stitch“. Repeat 52 times and end with an extra hdc (105 sts not counting the ch spacings).
Continuing the Blanket:
- 4. From Row 3 onwards, repeat the pattern from Row 2, working (1 hdc, 1 ch, 1 hdc) into each ch space from the previous row.
- Continue creating rows to the desired length, ideally repeating Row 3, 122 times.
Adding the Border:
- Attach the yarn of your blanket color to the first stitch on the short edge (not in a corner), and work 1 hdc into each stitch around the blanket, placing 3 hdc in each corner stitch for a slight curve.
- Move onto using your border color, and work 1 back post sc in each stitch around the blanket.
- For subsequent rows, alternate between using back post single crochet, working through the back loop only and traditional single crochet stitches, continuing to add 2 sc in each corner to maintain the blanket’s shape.
- Fasten off neatly and secure the yarn to finish.
Remember to weave in all ends, and give your blanket a final blocking for the perfect shape and size. Enjoy crafting this baby blanket with its timeless design and snuggly comfort that’s sure to be cherished.
