A Crocheted Baby Blanket for my Great Niece

Today, I am sharing a crocheted baby blanket I made for my new great niece
who arrived last week. Luckily my niece knew she was expecting a baby girl,
so I had plenty of time to make it before she arrived.
,
I had seen lots of blankets made using the ‘Waffle’ stitch when looking 
online for ideas. I really liked the pattern this stitch created, so I decided to give 
it a try following the Bella Crochet tutorial on YouTube.
It crocheted up fairly quickly and is definitely a good stitch to do 
whilst watching the television.

I finished the blanket by adding a border of treble crochet stitches in white,
 and a row of double crochet in pink. I then wrapped it with a pretty 
crocheted blanket tie. 
I purchased the yarn online from Wool Box who have great prices on
their yarns and provide a very fast delivery service.

I used five 100g balls of Sirdar Hayfield Baby Bonus DK, three in
 'Baby Pink' and two in 'Baby White'

Thank you for visiting my blog today.

    THis is beautiful Janice and will make a perfect gift for someone. I love the look of the waffle stitch too, it almost looks knitted rather than crocheted.
