lacy baby blanket crochet pattern free- perfect for a summer baby!
This lacy crochet blanket free pattern can be made for your living room or for your baby. Use just one neutral color if you are making it as a throw.
The stitch pattern is very easy and a one row repeat. It doesn’t get easier than that, does it?
I used Baby Softly yarn from Ice Yarns for this project. A great substitute would be I Love This Cotton yarn from Hobby Lobby. Though this yarn was marked a DK, I found it as thick as a worsted weight one. Don’t confuse us, yarn companies!
I added a simple picot border to add that final finishing touch to my lacy baby blanket pattern and love how it turned out. I hope you love it too.
So will you be making your Summertime blanket in one color or 2 colors like me? Don’t forget to share your makes with me on Instagram. My handle is Crochetdreamz.
