2in1 Dinosaur Hooded Blanket Crochet Pattern
2in1 Triceratops Dinosaur Hooded Blanket – A new crochet pattern
The 2in1 Hooded Dinosaur Hooded Blanket is the first in a long line of animal hooded blankets I am planning to make.
Once my family and friends found out what I was making, they all wanted one for their kids or themselves and now there are 8 different designs in line, so if the dinosaur is not your child’s favorite animal, you will have other options
The blanket is suitable for girls or boys, adults, and kids alike, and comes in two versions: triceratops or stegosaurus so you can choose the design you like best.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
I am stuck on this pattern, can you help?
Every pattern you purchase from my shop comes with help and support. I will help you get unstuck and finish your project, so you can buy with confidence and try something new.
If you are completely new to crocheting, I recommend starting with beginner patterns and building up your confidence, pay attention to the skill level of my patterns and buy only if you are already at that level.
That doesn’t mean that you can’t contact me if there is a mistake or something unclear with this pattern, it simply means that you will need to learn the stitches, and the techniques, and learn how to read a pattern on your own.
You can contact me by messaging me on my Facebook page, Crafting Happiness, or by messaging me on Instagram.
Can I crochet this blanket using Aran yarn (worsted yarn #4)?
Yes, you can! The body parts will come out a little larger than my own, but still, in the same shape, use a smaller hook than recommended for Aran yarn to keep the size smaller. The blanket can be adjusted by simply crocheting more rounds.
Do I have to use the same yarn brand as you to get the same result?
No, you don’t. You can use any brand you like but pay attention to the yardage, different brands have different yardage. Here is a list of alternative yarns I recommend.
Can I change the size of the blanket?
Yes, you can. Each pattern can be adjusted by simply changing the number of rounds you make.
Can I sell items made with your pattern?
Yes, you can. Please check the copyright section for more details.

Do you have this same pattern but for using med. #4weight yarn ?
June 22, 2021 @ 8:46 am
You can use medium #4 yarn with this pattern, it will come out a little larger, but if you use the same hooks as I used for #3 yarn, the size should be close. The shape of the parts are going to be the same.
