Tri-Color Moss Stitch Crochet Baby Blanket

This blanket pattern is extremely beginner friendly because Moss Stitch (aka Linen Stitch) is made up of only single crochets and chains. It's also perfect for seasoned crocheters who are looking to relax and unwind with a simple and mindless stitch. While the stitch is simple, the results are stunning, creating a solid, reversible fabric with beautiful drape and loads of visual interest. The blanket is lightweight but warm, with a timeless and classic feel. I include a hack in the pattern to help keep the number of ends that need to be woven in to a minimum. The pattern is for one size only, but I include the stitch multiple so that if you want to adjust for a different size you can do that. These two blankets are made with two different brands of yarn, and even though they are both 4/medium weight, 100% acrylic they feel very different from each other and work up very differently as well. Because of this, the hook size, starting chain, total number of rows, and total yardage are different for each blanket so that the final size is about the same.
