Teddy Bear Blanket Pattern

I’m a little bit addicted to making c2c (corner 2 corner) blankets but I think you guys already know that lol. I’ve worked with the baby boucle yarn before for a cardigan pattern (the cozy boyfriend cardigan) and knew that It would be perfect for a teddy bear design. The teddy bear crochet blanket!

This blanket is a bit smaller than my other recent c2c’s and I think it’s the perfect size for baby or toddler! I think it would be an awesome handmade baby shower gift as well. The chunky yarn and smaller size makes it work up pretty quickly and only took me a couple weeks on and off to complete. Check out my other free c2c patterns- The Covered In Cats Afghan, The Draped In Dogs Afghan and Unicorn Dreams Afghan

I uses Lion Brand Color Made Easy for the main blanket and Baby Soft Boucle for the teddy bear. The Baby Soft Boucle is held double stranded. You won’t want to skip out on that part so be sure you hold 2 strands at once or the bear wont be big enough. 

I also think it works great as a floor mat for babies and toddlers! The bulky yarn makes it extra squishy and soft. It’s definitely on the thicker side for a blanket! Like I said, perfect baby shower gift. 😉

Pattern: The Skyscape Shrug

Have you ever tried Landscapes yarn by Lion Brand? I remember buying some a few years ago to make a hat but never designed anything on a bigger scale with it. I’m so excited to finally share the Skyscape Shrug with you all! Its very simple. If you can make a rectangle then you can make this sweater! It’s the perfect project to work on while binging your favorite show on Netflix because you repeat the same few rows over and over! It is also super easy to customize. You can make it longer by starting with more foundation single crochet stitches. If you want a shorter wingspan, just take out a row repeat!

Kit and PDF’s-

You can find the kit to make this shrug HERE! It includes all the yarn you need (in 5 different color options) plus the ad-free printed PDF pattern!

You can find the ad-free printable PDF pattern HERE on Etsy or HERE on Ravelry.

It’s November! That means we get to post alllll the holiday designs right?! These bad boys can be wipped up within 10 minutes and are so dang cute! I think they would be perfect for holiday craft markets. I have visions of seeing them all hung on a mini tree displayed on craft tables! 🙂 A lot of people also brought up the idea of making a ton of them and stringing them up on a garland!
