Icing on the cake Crochet Blanket Pattern BUNDLE (by Poppyseed and Pom)

The Icing on the cake blanket pattern and wool bundle includes a printed out copy of the pattern and 5 x 100g DK in the following colours:

This crochet pattern is for a sweet baby blanket reminiscent of cupcakes, hence its ‘Icing on the Cake’ name!

The design includes a variety of stitches, including shells, and bobble stiches made on a contrasting colour background. The pattern creates pretty colourful stripes, making a fun and eye-catching blanket.

Crochet level: competent beginner to intermediate.

The instructions are for a baby blanket size (approx. 69 x 83 cm / 27 x 33 inches) however, the formula needed for increasing your foundation chain in order to make a wider blanket is also detailed in the pattern

Tension / gauge : 18 stitches and 19 rows = 10cm measured over double crochet (UK terms) using a 4 mm hook

Tension is not critical for this project but will affect the finished size of the blanket and how much yarn is used.
