Bernat Baby Blanket Dappled in Ever After Pink  

Super bulky 6 weight  ;  2 cakes

 

9mm crochet hook

 

Chain  72 or any even number to make the blanket as long (or wide) as you like.  I’m making my blanket vertically.

 

My chain was 40” long, but the blanket ended up being about 36-37” long.  Keep that in mind when making your chain row.

 

With 2 cakes of the Ever After Pink, each at 220 yards, the blanket ended up being about 36.5” x 32”, which is a good size for a newborn, crib or toddler.

I retired after teaching for 36 years. Most of my experience is in Early Childhood Special Education. I also taught 3rd and 4th grade and was a K-12 teacher for visually impaired students. Now I live in the country with my husband, a retired aerospace engineer, and our 2 Black Russian Terriers, Zhanna and Misha. We are very fortunate that our son and daughter-in-law live right next door! I love to crochet and enjoy sharing my projects with anyone who is interested! Debi
