Looking for a soft baby gift for a little girl? A gift that is soft but not too hard to make? This soft Purple Ombre Super Bulky Crochet Baby Blanket Pattern will be a great project to try.
This pattern used the double crochet stitch and the puff stitch. Making a soft puff followed by rows of double crochet.
The crochet pattern is an easy blanket project. This chunky purple, gray, and white baby blanket works up fast too using Bernat Blanket Yarn, a super bulky weight 6 yarn.
The Bernat Blanket Yarn
I love the soft fuzziness of this Bernat Blanket Yarn. The yarn is easy to find and inexpensive.
There are lots of color choices too: pinks, blues, greens, grays, lavender, and more. There are also solid colors, as well as, other multi-colored yarn choices.
The self striping ombre chunky chenille yarn is great because you get lots colors without having to change colors. There are less ends to weave in.
I found this super bulky yarn is a little hard to work with because it is fuzzy. You have to feel with your hook or your finger for the next stitch space.
I love to buy my yarn online. There are lots of places to get Bernat Blanket Yarn.
My favorite is Joann.com and Michaels.com. Both stores have lots of color choices and usually have sales.
