Learn how to make an easy crochet blanket using the Crossed Cluster stitch pattern! Includes a written pattern and video tutorial.

This pattern is available for FREE on the Craftematics blog and includes a written version, FAQs, and a video tutorial as well.

Materials

• Yarn - I like a weight 4, see notes below on yarn choice. For the example shown, I used Caron One Pound in Midnight Blue for the blanket and Red Heart Super Saver in White for the border.
• About 900-1100 yards is needed total to make the baby blanket size. I used one full skein’s worth of the Caron One Pound and about 1/3 a skein of the Red Heart Super Saver.
• Size H (5mm) crochet hook - use hook size needed to meet the gauge OR whatever size is appropriate for the yarn you’ve chosen (see notes in the blog on adjusting size).
• Tapestry needle
• Snips
