I was always in awe of people working at the big weaving machines producing stunning fabrics and I always wanted to have a go at these. I love the woven look they create. This was an inspiration behind my Meadowside Baby Blanket. I used crochet to achieve a woven look crochet blanket. There are quite a few crochet blankets with open chain spaces that have strands of yarn woven through with a needle afterwards. The strands are worked into the blanket as you crochet. There is no additional fiddling with yarn needle threading the strands through. https://bluestarcrochet.com/woven-crochet-baby-blanket/

Hello, I am currently working on a large bedspread. It is my first time working with granny squares, and the largest blanket I have attempted I am soliciting some ideas for a border from you kind folks. Here is an example of one of the squares, they will all be identical. If all goes to plan, the blanket will be 21 squares x 18 squares (90" x 77") (231cm x 198 cm) However, I may adjust the dimensions as I get enough squares together and it turns out it is too big or too small. World and personal events have greatly increased the time it has taken me to do this project. Currently I am about a year into the project and I am nearly done with the 3rd round, the red circle shown in the image. That leaves just the last white square border. I estimate this will take me 3-6 months. After that, I will need a plan for a border. I thought of doing a simple ripple, but maybe one of you creative folks has a better idea? Thanks in advance for any suggestions and please include images if you have them.

So the son asked me to make him a Star Wars Blanket! So I decided to have a try at making a pixel art blanket! Making small granny squares (2 rows in each) and joining them as I go. I will add to the thread as I go! Thanks for reading

Hi! I’m having difficulty with this chevron blanket pattern. In particular where it says rows 2-6. I find that as I continue, the rows get wider at the edges.

Here is my latest round ripple blanket crocheted using Aggie May's 12-point pattern. I always love round ripples and this is mostly scrap yarns and a few skeins of vintage yarn I got from a local Veterans Outreach. They are giving me yarn and I am crocheting them blankets and lapghans. Such a wonderful deal for us all. Finished size is 47 inches wide.

Hello! I am very new to crocheting. I have been a knitter for the last 30 years. My mom has always preferred to crochet. She is going to be 80 soon. After a recent hospitalization, we decided to make a quilt together with my 14yo daughter. After looking for a while, we came upon Ellen Gormley's triangle pattern found here: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/triangles-afghan The pattern calls for 3 colors. However, I found a picture (attached) that shows the same pattern but using 6 colors. The pattern also specifies worsted weight, 5.0mm needle. Both my mom and I have tried to do practice triangles. And they are not coming out like the pictures. 1. The holes in ours are way larger than the holes in these pics. The hole comes from creating a ch3 followed by a 2dc. I tried decreasing it to ch2 instead but the holes are still too big. 2. I'm thinking tha worsted weight yarn may be too heavy for what was used to create the red and blue blankets. I would LOVE to get your help for: 1. How to make the holes smaller. 2. What kind of weight yarn may have been used in the 2 pics. This blanket is special for us. I would love us 3 to create something beautiful as well as the memories to go with it. Thank you for your help! Sofia

When I found out the husband's nephew's fiancée was expecting, I told her when I found out what sex they were having that I wanted to make a baby blanket for her. I love making blankets for others and turning pretty yarn into something gorgeous. I decided to go for a sunburst granny square pattern and followed Sarah-Jayne's (Bella Coco) Pom Pom Edging tutorial on YouTube for the border. I also made it in her favourite shade of purple too! At the end I still had one ball of purple and one ball of beige left, so I decided to try Valerie's First Birthday Crochet Dress pattern a go and I think it turned out fab! Which is even more a bonus that that the Nephew's Bride to Be loves it too! I'd love to know what you all think! -
I’m so excited to finally get this one off my list. Ever since I released the Butterflies & Ladybugs blanket, I’ve wanted to make a companion for a little boy. I just adore baby boys. I have two of my own (though not at all babies any more). I worked this one in Tunisian crochet. The pattern has guides for both traditional and Tunisian crochet. Such a fun & colorful piece. It’s quite thick and at 40″ x 40″, it’s large enough for outdoor play. The pattern can be found in my Ravelry store HERE.

Me again! Everyone was so helpful when I was making my bunny that I am back here again to ask for your help :-) im about to start a simple blanket, but the pattern will make a 2.4m x .8m blanket. I’d like it to be square. my question is, as it’s done in single crochet, with a chain of 50 and has just short of 100rows, is it as simple as doubling my chain length to 100 to make the chain length similar to the amount of rows? And if so, do I use double the yarn yardage or only 50% more? Thankyou in advance :-)

This blanket uses a variation of one of my favorite knitted patterns, “Old Shale”. It’s so timeless and elegant. It’s also quite addictive. I used 3 cakes of Bernat Pop in Birch, Bark & Blue.

After my heart blanket, the same friend had asked me to make her friend's cat a blanket for Christmas. As she and her friend always bought stuff for each other's pets for Christmas! It measured 30" by 30" She was over the moon with it! I thought I would share it here!

I have a cat and I had some 25g balls of yarn, that I couldn’t use for bigger projects, so I chose all the colours, that a cat can see! Which when doing some research, found out was Green, Red, Blue and Yellow! The cat very much loves sleeping on it!

Hi! I am looking for a 2D motif pattern of a pineapple fruit (not a pineapple stitch!) that I can crochet into a recurring pattern as a colour change on a baby blanket. The babys mum love pineapples and I'm struggling to find anything that isn't pineapple stitch, which as someone who doesn't crochet she probably wont get the reference. Any ideas would be massively appreciated thank you! Georgia
