Lemon Zest Blanket
"The Lemon Zest blanket is a super fun and simple crochet pattern that’s perfect for baby blankets. Featuring a textured grid design, this two color crochet blanket pattern adds a playful touch without being too fussy. Its gender-neutral design makes it an excellent choice for any baby. What’s great about the Lemon Zest blanket is that it comes in 11 different sizes, so you can make a tiny one for a newborn or a larger version for a toddler to snuggle with. The texture adds a nice, cozy feel, making it ideal for tummy time, naps, or just adding a bit of warmth in the stroller. /PATTERN DETAILS • 11 sizes: Lovey to King • Easy level • Worsted weight yarn in 2 colors • Techniques used / Special stitches: Full explanations are given in the pattern. • US crochet notations /MATERIALS • 6 mm / US J – 10 hook • Worsted weight yarn: Royal Zeeman yarn (100% acrylic, 100g/3.5oz, 241m/264yd): • 1 (1, 4, 6, 8, 10, 14, 22, 36, 40, 45) skeins in off-white (MC) • 1 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 15, 17, 19) skeins in yellow (CC) You can easily substitute with any worsted weight yarn you want. • Tapestry needle to weave in the ends."
