If I were to teach someone how to crochet, I'd be excited to teach how to do this very beautiful beginner blanket. It's very colorful in a subdued way and very appropriate for baby boy or baby girl. Awesome.

I love this simple pattern. The colors are awesome. For those of us who have been crocheting for a long time this is a very easy pattern to work because it is just made up of double crochet rows that are worked in the back loop of the stitches. Beginners note dont get back loop mixed up with back bar.

Often I'll leave baby afghan patterns by the way side because they just seem to be too old fashioned! This one is so cheery and fresh with these eye-catching colors I couldn't pass by it! I also love the texture of the stripes. It's never too early to introduce good art to our little ones!

She came up with a beautiful pattern of bold stripes along with an accent stripe. Her pattern comes from her use of color changes! Usually we find patterns are created by specialty stitches. This baby blanket is so fresh and new looking. I love that she was not afraid to mix up her yarn brands, either. Thank you for this modern baby blanket pattern!

I love this pattern, this baby blanket is a classic and the colors used on this project are perfect for either a boy or girl for when you need a gift for a baby shower, but just arent sure what to get or make. Very straight forward instructions and easy to make. Thank you.

Hi - this is Rebecca, the blogger who published this pattern. My patterns are NOT downloadable - I only publish them on the page. (Many people copy and paste them into Word documents if they want to print them off.) If you are clicking something to download it, I'm not sure what you're trying to do. I just wanted to clarify this because comments like this can have longterm negative effects on my blog. Thanks :)
