I’m really pleased with how this afghan turned out. It’s a great all-around crochet blanket pattern for a boy or a girl. I designed it using worsted weight yarn so it would work up a bit faster than the usual baby yarn. I love the soft worsted weight baby yarns that are being made today.

Three different views are featured in our cute teddy bear afghan…filled, outline and bear in a block. The design is created by the dropped dc stitch worked in front lp of stitch 2 rows below. Check out the video on my website to see just how easy this technique is.

Included in the booklet are row by row written instructions as well as an optional graph for a baby afghan and a child-size afghan.
