Introducing the crochet Moss Blanket. I started this blanket when we begun thinking about starting a family and I was convinced that when we became parents it would be to a little boy, which inspired the colours of the blanket (although I think it makes a beautiful unisex blanket) I particularly love how dense the stitches are and the weight of it really feels beautiful resting over your lap. The size I created is perfect for a lap blanket or a cot blanket for when the little ones get older.

You can purchase a low cost ad free, printable copy of this pattern HERE. Not only does it mean you get your own copy of the pattern to print, you also support a small business and help me to keep making free patterns!
I chose to use Stylecraft Special XL in Duck Egg and cream and you will also see the blanket made in different brand of yarn and colour way (King Cole Big Value Super Chunky in Cream and Pink). It’s suitable for all skill levels and I have put together an easy to follow PDF pattern in order for you to be able to keep it on your phone/pc or print it off.
