Free Blanket Crochet Pattern: Calming Seas

baby blanket crochet patternsI am so excited to share this beautiful crochet blanket pattern for beginners. It could be a baby blanket crochet pattern, or a crochet throw blanket for your living room like mine! This is a pattern I made up shortly after I learned to crochet using the half double crochet stitch. It's very simple and I think it turned out great. It is usually draped over my love seat in the living room or on my rocking chair. I hope you enjoy this and share the link with friends!
