The criss cross baby blanket pattern is a free 2-page crochet PDF that shows you how to make a textured baby blanket with a distinctive criss cross stitch. The pattern is rated Easy and calls for a Size U.S. X/X (X mm) crochet hook or size needed to obtain gauge.
What the pattern includes
The pattern gives you the full instructions for working the criss cross stitch. You start with a foundation row of 50 loops, then work the pattern with the right side of the work facing at all times. The working yarn is held behind the stitches throughout, and loops are pulled through stitches from back to front. The PDF also lists the SKU # BRN0202-011870M for reference.
Printing and following the pattern
Print the 2-page PDF on paper size Other, as specified in the file. When you print, select actual size rather than fit-to-page so the gauge and stitch counts stay accurate. Follow the row-by-row instructions, keeping the right side facing you as you work. The pattern is useful if you want a quick crochet project with a modern texture.
