Free Pattern:

• This afghan doesn't sit flat. It has extra material so you can wrap up the baby with extra Pipsqueak yarn to keep them warm and cozy. 
• Every colour is exactly 3 rows. 
• Feel free to get other colour variations depending on the sex of the baby. I find changing colour makes it more interesting to look at. 

1. CH 5 and SL ST to the BEG chain to form ring.
2. CH 3 (counts as 1 double crochet), 2 DC into the ring. CH 1, 3 DC into the Ring, CH 1, 3 DC into the ring, CH 1, 3 DC into the ring, CH 1, 3 DC into the ring, CH 1, 3 DC into the ring, CH 1 and SL ST to the top of the CH 3 that started the row.

5. Change Colour and fasten on new colour. You will continue to repeat Step 4, 20 more times. With each round, you will be growing the afghan bigger; therefore, there will be more gaps in between the corners. You have a total count of 24 rounds in this afghan. Go more if you like or stop earlier if you prefer.
