Bubble Gum Baby Blanket / Throw

This free Crochet baby blanket pattern will help create your own baby blanket. This pattern is simple and easy to follow.

  1. Granny squares – While Granny square are fun and quick to create, joining them at the end can be a bit of a hassle.
  2. End to End (Traditional) – End to end is the traditional way of making a blanket. Chain the number of stitches you need and keep adding rows to it. This can take a long time.
  3. Corner to Corner (C2C) – I personally prefer C2C crochet pattern, since the ends go real quick and the middle portion takes a little bit of time. Otherwise, its a breeze.
