Crochet Be Mine Baby Blanket

Crochet Be Mine Baby Blanket

The Crochet Be Mine Baby Blanket is the third and final in the series.  I hope you enjoy one or all three of these easy textured blankets.

This one stands out from the Be Mine Chevron and Be Mine Square because of it's many bobbles!  I know some of you don't enjoy making bobble and that's ok.  Just leave them out if you prefer.  The simple row by row crocheting makes resizing this project super simple.
