🎀 How To Make This Newborn Blanket:
-
Start with an Even Number of Chains:
Chain an even number to get a balanced pattern. A starting chain of 102 makes a classic newborn-sized blanket. -
Work Suzette Stitch Across:
Crochet a single crochet and double crochet into the same stitch, skip the next stitch, and repeat. This creates a compact, squishy texture. -
Maintain the Pattern:
In each new row, always work your (sc + dc) combo into the single crochet of the previous row, skipping the double crochets. This keeps the texture tight and uniform. -
Grow the Blanket:
Repeat the pattern until you reach the desired length. This stitch grows steadily and forms a warm, cushy fabric ideal for babies. -
Finish Neatly:
After reaching the target size, cut the yarn, weave in all ends, and block lightly if needed for a professional finish.
