Ruffles baby blanket - new pattern


Wow! I can't believe it. I really can't believe that in just about a week I had developed the pattern and finished the blanket. Only about a week ago I went yarn shopping to refill my stock. I did not have anything particular in mind, definitely not a blanket. I just needed some new colours and it had been some time since my last yarn shopping. As soon as I reached home and began sorting through the yarns these three colours popped out and caught my attention.


I wanted to make something using these gorgeous colours and I could only think of ruffles. So I sat down and developed this pattern for a baby blanket with plenty of ruffles. I am not the one who enjoys crocheting blankets. I always love to make small items. Huge ones don't attract me. I usually get bored with large projects and almost always give them up half way through, but this time it was different.


This whole week I hardly spent time in front of the computer. I was always in front of the TV hooking rows and rows of ruffles. However, I should admit that I was relieved when I completed the last round as I had begun to grow impatient. Anyway the blanket is now finished and I am extremely satisfied with the result. I am pleased that it turned out exactly the way I had envisioned it. It is so soft, fluffy and cuddly and I could sleep happily hugging it. You can imagine how cozy your little one will feel wrapped up in all these ruffles.


The pattern is now available in my Etsy, Craftsy and Ravelry stores.

Have a great week ahead!
