Alpine Square Baby Blanket

Alpine Stitch In The Round! Well, square actually :slightly_smiling_face:! The Alpine Square Baby Blanket is a modern take on the classic granny square, featuring the beautifully textured alpine stitch worked in the round. This stitch combination of double crochet and front post treble crochet creates a rich, woven texture that looks intricate while remaining relaxing and enjoyable to make. Finished with a crab stitch border, the blanket is framed with a nostalgic edge reminiscent of ribbon-trimmed baby blankets which adds a soft, modern finish. Designed with both beauty and practicality in mind, this pattern produces a thick and cozy fabric that’s perfect for baby snuggles, gifting, and keepsakes. The stitch repeat is easy to learn and satisfying to work, making it a wonderful project for confident beginners and experienced crocheters alike. **Sizes** 5 total sizes Lovey Security Stroller Receiving Crib **Skill Level** easy **Recommended Yarn** 105 yards to 2624 yards Premier Bloom size 3 yarn **Hook** 4.5 mm crochet hook **Notions** yarn needles scissors **Gauge** 14 sts X 8 rows = 4 inches X 4 inches, worked in stitches indicated in pattern **Finished Dimensions** Lovey - 10 in x 10 in Security - 16 in x 16 in Stroller - 30 in x 30 in Receiving - 40 in x 40 in Crib - 50 in x 50 in **Terms to Know** chain double crochet front post treble crochet reverse single crochet / crab stitch
