From classic stripes to modern stitch work, there’s a blanket here for every mood and skill level.
1. Double V Baby Blanket
The Double V Baby Blanket is all about texture with a clean, modern feel. The repeating V-shaped stitches create a soft, flexible fabric that drapes beautifully while still being cozy enough for everyday use. It’s a great choice if you want something simple to stitch but visually interesting, perfect for solid colors or subtle tonal yarns.
2. Vintage Chevron Baby Blanket
This Vintage Chevron Baby Blanket brings a nostalgic look with a fresh update. The gentle zig-zag pattern adds movement and charm without feeling busy, making it ideal for heirloom-style gifts. Play with soft pastels for a classic baby look or go bold with high-contrast colors for a modern twist.
3. Parquet Stitch Baby Blanket
If you love texture, the Parquet Stitch Baby Blanket is a standout. Inspired by geometric parquet flooring, this stitch creates a rich, woven-like surface that looks intricate but is surprisingly relaxing to crochet. It’s a beautiful option for showcasing solid or lightly textured yarns and adds a polished, high-end feel to any nursery.
4. Ocean Waves Baby Blanket
The Ocean Waves Baby Blanket features a flowing stitch pattern that mimics gentle waves, creating a soothing and rhythmic design. This blanket is perfect for calming color palettes—think blues, greens, or soft neutrals—but it’s just as striking in unexpected color combinations. The result is a cozy blanket with movement and visual depth.
5. Granny Stripe Baby Blanket
The Granny Stripe Baby Blanket is a timeless classic that never goes out of style. Simple stripes built from traditional granny stitches make this pattern endlessly customizable. It’s a great stash-busting project and works beautifully with playful color changes or a more muted, modern palette.
Whether you’re drawn to bold texture, vintage-inspired patterns, or simple stripes, these crochet baby blanket patterns offer something for every maker. Pick your favorite, grab your yarn, and enjoy creating a cozy handmade piece that’s sure to be treasured.
