Woodland Bear Baby Blanket
The bear is the latest design to join the 3in1 Woodland Animals Baby Blanket series.

Just like my other 3 in 1 baby blankets, the 3in1 Woodland Bear Baby Blanket acts as a toy, a blanket and a decoration for your loved one’s room.
Unfold it and keep your child warm and snuggly while he is entertained playing with the elephant.
Once done, fold it back and it instantly transforms into a decorative item that you can rest on the arm chair or the side of the cot.
Made with double knit (light worsted) yarn, this blanket is warm and soft, but light in weight, perfect for babies of all sizes and ages.
The blanket is crocheted in gender neutral warm shades of brown and will fit any nursery.
Do you already know this pattern and just want to buy it?
You can find the affordable, large print, PDF pattern for this adorable bear baby blanket on Ravelry or Etsy.

Make it your own and choose any color that suits your color scheme and decor, from pinks for baby girls to blues for baby boys.
Choose natural shades of white and grey for a neutral colored nursery or make it fun and playful with bright colors such as green, yellow, blue or purple. Your choice!
This pattern will create a baby blanket size 100cm by 80cm (39.5in by 31.5in), but you can make yours as small or as large as you like by changing the number of the starting chains and the number of rows.

How to Crochet The Gingham Pattern Using The Double Crochet Stitch – Photo and Video Tutorial
Special Stitches
First Double Crochet In The Row (dc1) – sc in the first stitch, ch2.
Compared to the usual method of crocheting a double crochet in the first row (ch3), this method of constructing it will eliminate the gap that usually occurs between the first two stitches.
It will also help bringing the unused yarn over to the next row.
Single Crochet Back Loop Only (sc blo) – A stitch has a front and back loop that meet at one end and look like an horizontal V (looks like this >).
To single crochet in the back loop only, insert the hook in the middle of the V from top and under the back loop (the loop that is away from you), yo and draw up a loop.
Yarn over and pull through the two loops.
Gauge
Keep the tension relaxed, if your work is too tight, the ends will curl.
Gauge is important when crocheting the gingham pattern.
Make a small swatch before starting the blanket to figure it out how many rows you need to create a square.
My gauge for this tutorial is 10 stitches and 4 rows per square.
The entire blanket has 9 squares by 11 squares. Use one size up hook to make the foundation chain and first row.
Using the yarn weight and hook size suggested in this pattern will create a blanket size 100cm by 80cm (39.5in by 31.5in).
I hope you enjoyed my latest creation and found the pattern easy to follow. Don’t forget to tag me with your finished projects, I would love to see how yours turned out.
