Cuddles'n Clouds Star Baby Blanket

DOWNLOAD PDF FREE PATTERN

The Crochet Cuddles'n Clouds Star Baby Blanket uses just two balls of Bernat Blanket. The middle colouring is Moonbeam Lavendar followed by Vintage White. 

I have oddballs of variegated yarn that I don't know what to do with. So I created a mini-series where I can get away with just using 1 ball of one colour and pairing it with another. The colours, of course, are subjective to personal decisions and your decor. 

Yarnspirations.com inspires this pattern.
