Over the years, I've received numerous requests for a waffle stitch blanket pattern, and I'm excited to share this pattern and tutorial with you. While the intricate result may seem daunting at first glance, it's actually quite simple. The pattern features a two-row repeat using only two stitches, making it quick and easy to crochet! This waffle stitch blanket pattern is perfect for creating a delightful baby blanket or a lovely throw blanket. It's wonderful for babies who love exploring the little boxes the stitch creates, aiding their sensory development. Plus, with no large gaps or holes, it's a safe choice for newborns. The geometric design makes it an ideal option for a gender-neutral baby blanket. Using size 3 (light) yarn, this pattern yields a cozy and warm yet lightweight blanket with excellent drape and flow. The pattern also includes a beautiful, complimentary border that adds a stunning finishing touch.
