A couple years ago, about 3, I made a baby blanket for my friend who was pregnant. It was beautiful and really easy to make. My sister in law is now pregnant and I would like to make her the same blanket but I lost the print out I had of it and have had no luck finding it again online. I remember it was a double crochet then you would skip one and double crochet again. This was basically the entire blanket except for the end which a white rope went through. In the picture the blanket was pink. It would be really great if someone could help me find this.

I am trying to read the pattern for making a crochet wavy baby blanket. This pattern is found in a book called "I Taught Myself’" by Boye. There is one specific area that I am having trouble interpreting

One part of the instruction says: sc in the next 5 ch +

I think this can be interpreted as: single crochet in the next 5 chains…HOWEVER, I can’t not figure out the purpose of the plus sign…It is included in the instructions…just like the mathematical sign. Please help! Thank you
This is what it says:

Set-up Row: Beg in second ch from hook, sc in second ch and in next ch; skip 1 ch, sc in next 5 ch, * work 3 sc in next ch, sc in next 5 ch +, skip next 2 ch, sc in next 5 ch; repeat from * across, ending last rep at +, skip 1 ch, sc in last 2 ch; turn.

~~Thank you all for your responses and help.
Iron_Plague: Thank you for your response. Please look at my additional details…This is how the pattern is written in the book.

DR + Mrs Bears Face: This is from a book I purchased. I have written the first part of the pattern above.

Mary: Yes this book does have a list of symbols in the front of the book, but this symbol is not included. That is why I am a bit confused.

I’m 15 and a girl. It doesn’t look like a baby blanket, it’s a quilt and it still covers me up pretty well. Is that weird? Haha I don’t really snuggle with or something, it just kinda hangs out on my bed.

I am getting ready to make a baby blanket for a co-worker but can’t find a pattern. I would like to do a round ripple but not sure if it would look nice done in a variegated color. Variegated is the color of choice per co worker. Thanks in advance.

I have this Mickey mouse baby blanket my parents got me when I was born. I still have it now. I sleep with it and carry it around the house with me at home. Ex: if I’m in my room, my blanket is in my room, if I’m in the livingroom, it’s in the livingroom. Etc. Also, if I go to a friends or my boyfriends house, o take it with me. I’m not ashamed or anything. I mean, all my friends know and my parents do too. My boyfriend jokes about it sometimes but he said he thinks it’s cute.
It’s going on 17 years old and it’s getting quite raggedy. So it definitely no goin to be around much longer. The thought of not having it is upsetting. It’s the only thing I have to symbolize the time when my parents were together. They got divorced when I was 2. But I guess that’s why I’m so attached to it.

Is this common? Or is there something wrong with me? How can I try and not be so clingy to it?

Or turn the tanktop itself into a baby blanket/burp cloth type thing.

My friend was telling me about this baby blanket she wants to make sometime. I guess one of her other friends showed it to her. It is made from at least 2 different flannel prints sewn together. All I can remember is that she said it looks like a flower when you open it, it has blanket binding, and you have to sew at least some of the fabric together across the middle. I know this is vague, but I am hoping someone has seen this blanket or knows the name of it. I would love to know how to make one.

I crochet a lot and I normally try to find out how much certain things cost then try and price it a tad bit lower. Well, my dads girlfriend wants me to make a baby blanket. She wants to know how much I’ll charge but I’ve never attempted to sell anything like this before. So, how much to homemade crochet baby blankets run? Can anyone give me a rough estimate?
