Millie Bobble Baby Blanket
"The Crochet Bobble baby blanket is colorful, fun, and full of texture, perfect for a new arrival. This crochet baby blanket was made with a but little girl in mind, but change the colors and it will be great for boys and girls. When I heard my cousin was having a baby girl, I was just thrilled. I knew I needed to create something truly special for this little baby. My grandmother used to make baby quilts for every new baby. I searched several quilt designs for inspiration. I knew I wanted it colorful but simple to make. I ended up choosing this checkered pattern. The blanket alternates between a color and white. The white provides some consistency while the colors are, well, colorful. This blanket can be carefully planned out or you can just work with yarn from your stash and make it up as you go. Either way, it is a relatively simple pattern."
