Chevron Baby Blanket, FREE PATTERN
Upon hearing the news that both my cousin and friend are pregnant, I knew it was time to make a set of baby blankets. Picking out the right yarn is always a fun challenge, I wanted something bright and colorful and preferably variegated so I wouldn't have to keep changing colors. I choose an acrylic so it can be washed in the machine, but I think a superwash merino wool would also be a great choice. I found this yarn, Carnival, and thought it would be perfect.
It's a size 3 light weight yarn
Crochet hook: 4mm- 4.5mm
You can use any yarn you want though! Use suggested hook size for whichever yarn you choose.
*The conversions will be different if using a different weight yarn/hook size. *
