Easy C2C Striped Baby Blanket - Free Crochet Pattern

Buy the ad-free PDF of this pattern in my shop here!

I love making baby blankets.  Especially when they are made with super bulky yarn and work up in a weekend!!  That’s exactly how this pattern is, and the Bernat Blanket Stripes yarn even does the color changing for you.  Win-win!

Baby blankets are by far the most popular category year-round on my blog.  So much so that I’ve decided to start creating a lot more baby items: blankets, booties, sweaters, hats, etc.  I love baby makes!  Even though we are done having babies in this house (4 boys is enough and the youngest is still under 1 1/2!) baby makes are my favorites.  I usually always know someone I can make a baby gift for so it’s easy to find a baby to gift these to.

I really enjoy using the Bernat Blanket yarn.  I have used it for two other c2c  projects in the past – the Quick and Easy Baby Blanket and the Race car Blanket (which is huge but worked up way faster than I ever thought possible!)  Both of these have been popular projects on the site and I wanted another quick and beautiful blanket – and here it is. 😀

How to Crochet: Easy C2C Baby Blanket

Border

Join CC, ch 1.

Round 1: *Sc in space between blocks, ch 1, sc along side of next block, ch 1; repeat from * to corner, work (sc, ch 1, sc) in corner; repeat from * around to beginning, slip st in first sc.  Do not turn.

Round 2: Ch 1, sc in same sc and each sc around, working (sc, ch 1, sc) in each corner.

Fasten off.  Weave in ends.

That’s it!  You’re done!  I love C2C crochet and this self striping yarn made it even easier – with fewer ends to weave in. 🙂  Always a plus, right?

    I have always wanted to make one of these c2c blankets but I can never get even to the 2nd row of one. It just ends up looking like a little tangled mess and I give up. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
