Twinkle Twinkle Filet Blanket

This cute star blanket with the words of the children's poem "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" is a beautiful gift for a newborn or young baby. The pattern is very easy for beginners as there are no unusual or difficult stitches to master. The pattern contains written instructions with full stitch counts for every row, as well as a complete crochet chart.

The blanket is made using dk-weight yarn (US:light-worsted/AUS:8-ply) yarn. It uses chains, double crochet (US-single crochet) and treble crochet (US-double crochet) stitches. I used 100% acrylic yarn (approx 320g/11.3oz) but it would also be lovely in a soft cotton yarn too. You will also need a size 4.00mm (G/6) and a size 3.50mm (E4) crochet hook and a yarn needle. The finished blanket measures approx 38in x 28in / 96cm x 71cm.
