Babypalooza! 13 Pastel Baby Blankets

March 6, 2017 by FaveCrafts

Spring is fast approaching, which means one big thing in the world of crochet: it’s time to start making your baby gifts! Spring is a really popular time of year for baby showers, baby birthday parties, and other celebrations (such as Easter) where giving a gift could be appropriate. There’s no better gift for this time of year than pastel baby blankets – new parents could always use a high-quality baby blanket, and this time of year there’s usually still a bit of a chill in the air that makes it a little too cold for a new baby unless they’re bundled up in a soft baby blanket!

To get inspired, I’ve rounded up 13 of our cutest pastel afghan patterns just for you! Pastels are always a big trend for spring (just think of the colors that come to mind when you think about Easter!) and whether it’s a gift for a boy or a girl, you can’t go wrong with working up one of these adorable crochet afghan patterns in a baby-friendly pastel hue. We’re ga-ga for some of these incredible color combinations, and whether you prefer a granny square afghan pattern or something a little larger, these unique designs are sure to please! (And remember that the Pantone colors of the year are Rose Quartz and Serenity, a pastel pink and blue respectively, so you don’t have to feel guilty about working up a pretty pastel afghan for yourself, as well – it’s totally on trend for 2016!)

You never know when it will happen: that time in your life when it seems like all of your friends are having babies. And while it may seem like that’s crazy and time is just flying, you can’t even focus on how scary it all is because you have to get your gifts ready for their baby showers. If you want to give your friends unique, personalized gifts, why not make them homemade baby blankets? You can easily make a different blanket for each friend, and it’s a gift that they will not only love, but also get a lot of use out of! There are all sorts of ways you can make a baby blanket, but we especially love crochet baby blankets and baby quilt patterns.

Afghan for Baby

August 11, 2009 by FaveCrafts

Babies need to stay warm at all times. They are tiny and need to be taken care of. Ann Middleman, one of our guest contributors sent in this great Afghan project. This free knitting pattern is for a knit baby blanket. She calls it a Granny Square Crib Afghan. You can make this for your own kids or even for grand-kids.

granny-square-crib-afghan-3

This crochet afghan is pretty with all its brightly colored yarns. It also makes for a nice keepsake. My mom knit me an Afghan when I was younger and I know I will keep it forever. I also have a knit afghan that my grandma made. Both of them are very special to me. This Granny Square Crib Afghan might take a while to make, but it will all be worth it. If you like this crochet afghan you should check out the Slanket. It might have a funny name, but it definitely comes in handy on those chilly winter nights.
