Discover the best crochet baby blanket patterns in this selection of crochet patterns for the nursery and find your next favorite pattern. Baby blankets are a dual-threat – they’re essential for keeping babies warm and cozy, but they’re also great decorative pieces for the nursery, too!

Crochet baby blankets are a great way to try out a blanket pattern without fully commiting to a large afghan.  Try making one of these baby afghans as a baby shower gift – the little one will love it!

Choose from quick, simple stitches to more complex designs, from crochet ripple patterns and other designs to cables stitches. You can even make some round baby blankets or tiny, precious loveys (a lovey, for those not in the know, is a baby blanket with an animigurumi figure).
