Two-color Block Stitch Baby Blanket (crochet)

Designed by Kathy North.  ©2007

Size: approx. 21” x 28”, but can be worked wider or longer as desired

Materials:

4 to 6 oz. worsted wt. yarn in Color A

4 to 6 oz. worsted wt. yarn in Color B

Size I hook

Tapestry needle for weaving in tails

Gauge: 3 dc = 1” with worsted wt. on size H hook

Notes: You can make this blanket wider by chaining a longer foundation chain, then work across for as many chains as needed to complete the repeat of pattern, leaving excess chains to trim off later when they are no longer needed.

Make blanket longer by working to desired length (a wider or longer blanket will require more yarn)

Color pattern: Pattern is worked in 2 rows Col A followed by 2 rows Col B. Do not cut yarn, but carry colors loosely up side of work until needed again.

Multicolor option: Use up your scrap yarns and change colors at the end of any row!
