Textured Crochet Baby Blanket
"Looking for an easy pattern made with basic stitches that has some texture and interest? Try the Easy Textured Crochet Baby Blanket! I love the blanket stitch, and thought it was about time I had a project on the blog that used it! So I grabbed a couple of skeins that I had in my stash and got to work – mostly while riding in the car or waiting in the car line for my sons. I love the way this worked up! Team this easy blanket stitch (made with just chains, single and double crochet stitches) with an easy puff stitch border, and you’ve got a wonderful gift for a new little one in your life!
