Baby Waves Afghan
"The Baby Waves Afghan was created with a special little one in mind. The soft, 100% chemical and allergen free acrylic yarn keep it comfy and safe while the pattern keeps my eyes and hands happy. It is perfect for baby’s first blanket. Measuring 40? wide by 40? long, it is sure to keep them warm for quite some time. Although the pattern may look complex, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how easy it comes together. By using a slightly modified V-stitch, this crochet baby blanket is also beginner friendly. Follow along with my tutorial below for guidance. Let’s get started!"

This is a super easy and fast blanket, but beware if you are following the printed pattern opposed to the video. The printed pattern says to chain 107, but it actually is supposed to be 104 or a multiple of 4!!

My big sister would have loved this in an afghan for herself. Blue was her favorite color and she would have bugged me to make this for her relentlessly. I can appreciate the calming effect of the color blue and in memory of her, I think I will make this and gift it to her children .

I enjoy learning new stitches. As of to date I have not used the v-stitch and it is nice to know I will be starting out with a modified version that is a tad easier than the traditional. I love the edging of this baby waves afghan. The changing of the colors provide a very pleasing look and this afghan is appropriate for a boy or a girl. Blue is such a calming color, any baby will feel comforted wrapped up in it.

So clever to select chemical and allergen free yarns for a gorgeous blanket for a new little one, thank you. And the pattern is Easy too which is wonderful! At the moment I am almost exclusively working on baby items due to the several beautiful new little ones that have entered into my circle of family and friends. This pattern is very pretty and a perfect gift to a precious new person.
