The Little Blessings Baby Blanket is a free crochet pattern, here on my blog! I designed this baby blanket with the intent to have the puffs act as a toy for the baby. When having tummy time, the puffs will grab the interest of the baby. This blanket is super soft, modern, and great for a baby girl, or a baby boy. This easy to crochet, baby blanket pattern –Little Blessings Baby Blanket– uses double crochet and puff stitches to keep it simple to make, but also adds a bit of fun with the puff stitches. Something about making puffs makes me happy!! Hope you love them too!! Blanket is approximately 33 inches by 38 inches, great for a baby or toddler.
