Crocheted a baby blanket for my boy. It was my first time ever doing this, so it didn’t come out the best, but it’s still cozy and works like a blanket 🧡
Omg that’s beautiful mamas, great job! 😍 I’ve been meaning to make my son one, and I love that pattern/thickness.. can I screenshot the post for reference? Super weird I know 😂
Thank you darlin!! And yes of course 💛 not weird at all. It’s a simple single crochet stitch like the chain you start off with. When it came to the edges, I sort of made up my own thing to make sure the blanket came out straight. I used my fingers to stitch this too 💛 all I can say is be patient! I had to start over SO many times until I finally got the hang of it. It still came out a bit funky, but at least it’s straight and will wrap my little boy up in warmth 😌
@mysticangel, it’s sooo good! Lil man is gonna love it 🥰 Going to get yarn while I’m out today, thank you for the inspo 💙 Whenever I knit (cause I don’t crochet much) I always fall asleep or the baby gets to it.. so I feel like it’s best to try during naps and at night 😂 did you use a 10mm hook? ☺️
@mama.kay, awe well this one was pretty fast! I def got sleepy towards the end though so go at it when you know you have the energy ☺️ I used my fingers to crochet with this yarn. It was so soft and fluffy that it kept slipping off my 14mm hook. I kept the chain loose until the middle cause it started to widen haha so then I fixed the edges and tightened the center ☺️
Yes I did! I just watched a few tutorials, picked 2 skeins of yarn out with my hubby & just flowed with the repetition of a simple stitch. I actually used my fingers & had to start over more than a handful of times, but it was certainly a wonderful experience that was honestly really meditative 💛 thank you so much!
