Knitters, consider “Chevron Baby Blanket,”<\/a>\u00a0“Saurey,”<\/a>\u00a0“Hydrangea,”<\/a> or\u00a0“Super Easy Crib Blanket.”<\/a>\u00a0Crocheters, try “Ripple Blanket,”<\/a>\u00a0“Vintage Crocheted Throw & Afghan,”<\/a>\u00a0“Oh, the Places You’ll Go Baby Blanket,”<\/a> or\u00a0“Crochet Super Easy Baby Blanket.”<\/a><\/p>\n
