What You’ll Need Before You Start
The Sweet Granny Baby Blanket calls for an aran-weight yarn that will give your project a cozy feel. Make sure that you use the right size of crochet hook so you don’t get your stitches too loose or too tight.
The designer chose Lion Brand Wool Ease Solids, Heathers, Twists, which is a luxurious blend of wool and acrylic, and paired it with a 5.5 mm crochet hook.
