This Baby Blue Waffle-ghan is appropriate for a christening or baby shower present for a baby boy. The powder blue color is so refreshing and relaxing.

How many stitches are in each repeat? Do you have different starting chain numbers for making this blanket bigger. I would appreciate a starting number of chains for a slightly larger blanket. Thank you.

Hello! We have yet to test this blanket pattern in-house. If you would like, you can comment on the pattern page at Bernat and the designer may be able to answer. Thanks, Krista Editor: http://www.yarnspirations.com/patterns/crochet-blanket-2.html

The pattern appears to be multiples of 4, plus one at the end for your turning chain. It would depend on whether you want to use baby yarn or not. If you used worsted weight, you could use a J or K hook, and start with chain 183, which would be 45 multiples of the pattern and your turning chain.

Love the look of this Baby Blue Waffle-ghan Pattern. The first thing I noticed is there is no stitch guide to explain the stitches. But knowing my stitches I know that the dcbp dcfp means double crochet back post and double crochet front post. I'm not sure how the pattern read back in Dec. 2014, but now the pattern does finish the border of the beginning and ending of the rows with a dc stitch. I will be making a few of these, I like the waffle-ghan pattern.. Thank you for this free pattern.

This is confusing...the first and second rows create a nice border. When I follow the pattern and end with row 4, it leaves no border at all. Help.

this is confusing The first and second rows create a nice border and are different than rows 3 and 4. If I do what the pattern says and just continue with 3 and 4 till the end, I will not have the same border as the beginning one! Help

I can't believe that this pattern is labeled EASY!!! It is one of the most challenging patterns I have ever done...
