Unisex Baby Blanket Colors

Unknown baby sex so must crochet a unisex baby blanket

What colors would you use or do you think go together well for this type of project?? thanks

I've used pale green - comes in a hugeskein. An off white would look adorable with that. There's always yellow, too. If the parents to be are fun people, I like primary colors: bright blue, red, yellow, green, and maybe orange. I made a round ripple blanket with most of those colors. I think I spaced them with some bright white, if i remember correctly.

There are quite a few ideas you could run with.

All white, white with a pastel border, all cream, solid pastel green or yellow, OR............ just to name a few:

Happy Stripes

Rickrack Rainbow

Starlight

Sweet Ocean Breeze

Baby Blocks Afghan & Bib (one of my faves)

 

When I searched on Ravelry with "baby blanket", and marked off crochet, 40 pages surfaced! There are so many styles and colors out there.

Reni, those are very cute patterns! I love the star one. It would be a great stash buster for my NICU blankets.

mint greens, and off white, and yellow, all good choices, solid or striped, would look terrific, or thinking outside of the box, I would try pale mossy green, with a cream color, or a tan and off white maybe. Round ripples look good in any color combo!

Thanks for the suggestions I am just not a color person so I always need some help w/ this lol..Plus I am just doing for something to crochet

 

I talk to the Guy at my job so I don't know alot about the family other then what he tells me which is this is baby 4 all under age 5 years and they are Mormon ( so that doesn't tell me too much lol)

Whatever you make will be more than appreciated I'm sure! Sometimes I just walk through the yarn department and see what color speaks to me.....

There's a multi-color yarn I like to pick up that has pastel white, blue, yellow, and pink. A white-green-tan blanket never fails either.

Some people like more off beat colors these days such as browns and turquoises seem to be popular. I requested my grandma to make mint green/peach for my daughter. She thought that was off 25 years ago... lol not your average pink  or blue.  I just made a baby bumper for a lady that was what she called 'retro' colors.

I forgot to mention about the post I made back in June about Color Choices. Maybe the links in post #1 and #3 would help you decide on colors.
