Wild One Baby Blanket

"Somewhere I always find inspiration is in the color schemes and nursery decor I see on Pinterest. I always wanted to design something using the Wild One theme and these squares came to be just as I had imagined them! My favorite square is the first one which I released today as I kick off this fun TCAL! I wanted this blanket to be a nice introduction to TC and decided on some fun stitches and techniques to try! I don’t want to give too much away because it is a mystery TCAL after all! Although you can use yarn from your stash, since this is a themed blanket, it’s preferable you use the same colors. I used Comfy Worsted yarn which was kindly gifted by We Crochet! YARN: Comfy Worsted in Thicket – (COL A) 1340 yards (Size 4 worsted weight yarn; 1.8 oz/ 50 g, 109 yds/100 m; 75% Pima Cotton, 25% Acrylic) Comfy worsted in Parchment – (COL B) 1330 yards (Size 4 worsted weight yarn; 1.8 oz/ 50 g, 109 yds/100 m; 75% Pima Cotton, 25% Acrylic) Comfy worsted in White – (COL C) 1480 yards (Size 4 worsted weight yarn; 1.8 oz/ 50 g, 109 yds/100 m; 75% Pima Cotton, 25% Acrylic) I absolutely loved working with this yarn. It is a perfect cotton blend for little ones’ sensitive skin since its made up of Pima cotton and acrylic! It is super soft and I love the variety of colors provided! These colors fit my Wild One theme vision so well, it’s the perfect color scheme and I couldn’t be happier. This yarn is also machine washable and dryable which makes it perfect for little ones! HOOK: US 10 6 mm Tunisian hook with a 12 in. cord and stopper – I used the Radiant Wood Interchangeable Tunisian crochet hook with cord and stopper gifted from We Crochet. I absolute love this set and did a in depth review over on another blog post that you can check out here. I love the smooth wood and the colorful mosaic style is so pretty to work with! US 10.5 6.5 mm hook – I used my Furls Laurel Streamline Wood Hook. Notions: Yarn needle Scissors Measuring tape Blocking materials (blocking boards/mats, pins, and steamer) Gauge: Gauge is 18 sts over 13 rows in Tunisian simple stitch for a 4 x 4 in. square using a J 10 6 mm Tunisian crochet hook. Finished Size: The finished size of the square laid flat is 7 x 7 inches Pattern Notes: This pattern is for a fun patchwork style Tunisian crochet blanket featuring a Wild One theme. There is a variety of Tunisian crochet textures and colorwork throughout to practice the basic Tunisian crochet stitches! "
