Did you know that Christine, my fellow AllFreeCrochet editor, gave birth to her first baby this week? She welcomed a beautiful, healthy baby girl into the world on Tuesday, August 21. In honor of her new little bundle of joy, we’re dedicating today’s post to Christine and her baby.
Today, we’re going to learn how to make a baby afghan! The beautiful Candy-ghan is perfectly named, as it resembles cotton candy. It’s made using Bernat Baby Blanket yarn, which works up so quickly and is super soft for babies to cuddle with. The video below, hosted by Michael Sellick, will walk you through how to crochet this baby blanket. For written directions, find the Candy-ghan crochet pattern here.
Don’t forget to take a look at all of our other great crochet video tutorials we have for you on our site!
