A dear friend’s first grand baby died in the womb this week at 23 weeks ..so sad. I have an extra funeral blanket in my closet, but a preemie is way, way too small for a full size baby blanket. This baby is only about 1.5lbs and would fit in the palm of a hand!
So I took out my string yarn and started crocheting last night . It took just a few hours to make this delicate blanket for the baby. It measures about 6″x8″.
I used a pattern map that you can find here if you want the stitch. It is free. I added the scalloped border. 5dc in one st, sk 2st, sc, sk2, 5dc. Repeat.
I hope this SWEET little blanket will bring them comfort. I know it brings me a bit.
