I originally designed the baby-size “Easter Basket” afghan back in 2006. It has now been joined by the full-size “Tulip Basket” afghan -- creating the perfect gift set for new baby and Mom, or in your choice of colors for Big Sis, Big Brother, or even Dad!

Both Spring Basket Afghans are designed in strips that work up quickly, go together easily, and create a fun-to-make, heirloom-quality gift that is also practical. Worked in baby sport/DK weight yarn, these afghans are light and fluffy yet warm for both Baby and Mom during those late-night feedings!

The Spring Basket Afghans are worked in -- what else? -- basketweave stitch variations that are at the same time bright and spring-y but warm and comfy (for mid-winter warmth in spring colors, or perfect for those cool spring evenings). Finished baby afghan measures approx. 34” x 44” and the full- size afghan is approx. 48” x 63”.

My “Spring Basket Afghans” pattern set is featured as an electronic download, but a printed version is also available, exclusively from http://www.treasuredheirloomscrochet.com/e-spring-baskets...
