Wolsley Baby Blanket Crochet Pattern

Formerly known as the Simple Stripes Baby Blanket,

I’ve relaunched this pattern with a new name, the Wolsley Baby Blanket.

Being the first pattern I published back in 2016, it seems fitting to be named after the first street I lived on.

This pattern is the perfect starting point of your slowcraft journey.

It features Granny Stitch to help you build confidence, and stripes to keep up momentum as you reach each colour change.
