Modwen Baby Blanket

"The Modwen Baby Blanket is a beautiful Tunisian crochet baby blanket item that is a pleasure to make and a pleasure to use. It features an interesting woven like pattern that is crocheted in columns using 3 colours and join as you go technique.     This is a fun project for when you would like to work colourwork but not having to have more than 2 balls of yarn on the go at any one time! The chunky weight yarn makes it an amazing project that can be whipped up in a few evenings!"

For those who enjoy crocheting beautiful, intricate patterns, we recommend trying your hand at a Lace Crochet Shawl. This project is perfect for intermediate crocheters looking to challenge themselves with delicate lacework. The finished shawl makes a lovely gift for a friend or family member, and is ideal for wearing on cooler evenings or special occasions.

If you prefer working on projects that are quick and satisfying, consider crocheting a C2C (Corner-to-Corner) Crochet Baby Blanket. This project is great for beginners looking to expand their skills, as it introduces the technique of crocheting diagonally. The end result is a cozy and modern blanket that's perfect for gifting to a new parent or adding a pop of color to a nursery.
