In late June, I began to get the itch for autumn - I know, a bit too early! I started sifting through my yarn stash and discovered that I had just the right colors to create a fall-themed crochet blanket filled with offset bobbles and stripes. (The original name for this blanket was "The Harvest Berries Blanket," but I quickly realized this pattern would be gorgeous using any colors - including a stunning monochromatic palette!)
About the Pattern
This cozy blanket is made from alternating rows of double bobble rows, single bobble rows, and simple stitches to create a beautifully textured pattern. I used Caron Simply Soft yarn from Yarnspirations, but I encourage you to experiment with different yarns to find one that fits your personal style! If you're searching for yarns similar to Caron Simply Soft, I highly recommend exploring Yarn Sub, a free and independent tool to help crocheters find the perfect yarn substitutes! The blanket is finished with a simple border along all four sides, complemented by a jumbo multicolored tassel on each corner.
This pattern uses a variety of basic stitches and easy color changes, ideal for an enthusiastic beginner! And because I love creating flexible blanket designs, this pattern includes instructions for making it any size! The finished baby blanket featured in this post (and in the pattern's photos) measures 37.5" x 38.5".
