I’ve been calling this blanket the seedling blanket ever since! Once I started working up the stitch I realized it looks a lot like the knitted seed stitch. I’ve been wanting to revise it with a much lighter weight yarn for a more delicate, heirloom style crochet baby blanket project. Way back in the first year of designing, I made a huge chunky blanket called the mini basketweave blanket using a new-to-me stitch. I’m so excited to bring these two passions of mine together in this series this year, the first of which is this crochet seedling blanket! That sparked an idea – a collection of crochet patterns inspired by children’s books. After a big pattern sale last fall, we actually took half of our proceeds and used it to buy children’s books for our local hospital.

An easy crochet blanket – my Crochet Seedling Blanket – is a free pattern here on the blog! Read through my inspiration, design process, and lots of info on the perfect yarn I chose.
