Hi everyone! If you would like to learn how to crochet a baby blanket, one that is an easy pattern for beginners, I have a great crochet tutorial for you! In this video, I’ll show you how to make the Barclay Baby Blanket which is made up using the super easy ripple stitch. FREE WRITTEN PATTERN ON MY BLOG (US CROCHET TERMS): https://maisieandruth.com/easy-crochet-baby-blanket-the-barclay-baby-blanket/ This stich has the most wonderful texture as it has a raised, bobble-like effect. The blanket is SO soft and SUPER squishy! Another great feature of this blanket is that it’s really quick and easy to work up – you only have to repeat 1 row throughout the pattern! ⏰ TIMESTAMPS: Jump to the section you need immediately 00:00 Introduction 02:07 Materials 02:37 Row 1 03:58 Row 2 07:35 Row 3 11:20 Border - Round 1 16:23 Border - Round 2 I finished my blanket off with a simple border consisting of 4 rounds of single crochet stitches. I then attached a pom pom to each corner. The finished size of this blanket is 28 by 28 inches, but you can make it in any size you wish. I tell you how to do this in the free written pattern (link above). This means that you can make the blanket using a lighter weight yarn and smaller hook, if you prefer. For the yarn I used Paintbox Yarns Simply Chunky, which is a #5 bulky yarn, in the colour Duck Egg Blue. For the crochet hook, I used a K hook (6.5mm). This blanket really does work up super fast and is great if you need a last-minute gift for an upcoming baby shower! This is a beginner-friendly crochet tutorial, and as long as you know how to work the following stitches, you’ll have no problem in crocheting this sweet baby blanket: ch – chain dc – double crochet sc – single crochet sk – skip sl st – slip stitch st - stitch P.S.
