Welcome baby with a beautiful handmade blanket!

A crocheted blanket is the perfect gift for a new baby. Putting the time and effort into making your gift bestows a special meaning to it, and favorite blankets are often cherished into toddlerhood and beyond. Many become heirlooms for the next generation.

The 10 designs in this book showcase a variety of stitches and techniques, but all are appropriate for a beginner to intermediate skill level. Crochet them in the color palettes shown, or use colors to match the nursery or your own favorite combinations. You'll delight in seeing the stitches fly off your hook as your blanket progresses, and baby and new mom will love snuggle time in the soft, beautiful afghan you made!
