A sweet baby blanket with subtle texture is constructed using a combination of just a few different Tunisian Crochet stitches. The pattern utilizes a simple 4 row repeat that creates a textured diamond lattice pattern. After completing the body of the blanket, a pretty border is added, worked in the round using crochet stitches.

Once a few pattern repeats have been completed, the stitches become rhythmic and mindless, making it a great project to do while watching your favorite television series.
