Patterns for loop yarn8/24/2023 If you haven’t already, check out all of the other designs that are featured in the 2023 Preemie Crochet Challenge hosted by Helen of Sunflower Cottage Crochet. While she may be too big for one now, this striped crochet baby blanket was designed in her honor and I couldn’t be happier to release the pattern with this event. While I likely would participate anyway because it’s for a good cause and for charity, both of which I feel strongly about, my niece really solidifies my participation each year. She is why I always participate in this challenge. She is a happy and healthy 10 year old now and I couldn’t be more proud of her or my best friend for all they have accomplished together. This event means a lot to me because my darling “niece” was a Preemie and I will always remember all of the emotions and concerns that my best friend went through when she was born. This Striped Baby Blanket Pattern was designed specifically for theĮvery year when my designer friend Helen of Sunflower Cottage Crochet asks for designers to participate in her Preemie Crochet Challenge, I do not hesitate to join. While at first it was a bit of a disappointment that the yarn didn’t work out as originally intended, I’m glad it happened because I’m absolutely in love with this striped crochet baby blanket and I hope that you will be, too. Thus, this crochet baby blanket pattern came to be! I absolutely loved the design of my Kelly Kindle Cover and decided it would make a fantastic baby blanket. I wanted something that was simple and classic so that the yarn could shine but still be interesting to crochet, feel and look at. Never one to give up on yarn, though, I came up with the Avery Baby Blanket after some swatching and thinking through ideas. When I started swatching, though, I quickly realized that Lion Brand Color Theory just didn’t have the stitch definition I wanted for the original baby blanket idea. Originally I had a ton of inspiration to design a totally different baby blanket pattern but I absolutely fell in love with some yarn at Joann and happily took it home none-the-wiser. If I can make it striped or I can buy it striped, it will probably be striped. You can read more on my Privacy Policy, if you prefer.
