Blanket Tips:

• Keep all of your works in progress organized with these crochet printables that are free to download.
• While making blankets you will always need more than one skein of yarn, and here are my favorite ways of joining yarn in crochet
• Choose soft squishy yarns- it is easier to see and make the stitches
• Use bigger hooks with a chunky yarn- to make progress faster and keep it fun
• Start with a small size like a baby blanket to build confidence
