Allow me to introduce the softest of softest baby blankets, the Baby’s Dream Blanket by Tine Sommer Hansen. Its chunky texture will make sure it doesn’t slip off baby, but the lacy texture makes sure they will be able to breathe if they get their face underneath it. Ready to give it a try?
The Best Yarn Choices
Are you into solid colorways or maybe prefer bold palettes? I’m happy to tell you that this crochet baby blanket pattern will nail every look! The original sample was made with Cotton Kings Sultan Deluxe, which is a soft 100% cotton yarn in sport weight, with a beautiful ombre effect.
The photos below, on the other hand, show a more minimalist version in a delicate pink shade. Which style speaks louder to your heart?
Essential Stitches Used in This Pattern
The true star of this crochet baby blanket project is the shell stitch pattern. This distinctive technique requires basic skills involving just single crochets and double crochets.
The blanket is worked in a 2-row repeat alternating a row of chain stitches and v-stitches with a row of shells.
The pattern is classified for intermediates, but I’m pretty sure adventurous beginners can give it a go, too! Clear photo instructions are there to guide you step by step, making it accessible for all skill levels.
Finished Size and How to Adjust It
The completed baby blanket measures approx. 28” x 28′‘, which is an ideal size for a crib or stroller. The pattern is repetitive, so if you want your blanket to be bigger, it’s very easy to do – simply, continue working the two-row repeat until you reach the desired size. No rocket science, is it?
