I have made this crochet stroller blanket uk on a large hook size, this made it crochet up quite quickly and also gave it a lovely soft feel.
Make for your little one or to give at baby showers, use as a gift for family and friends new baby, made in a pretty textured stitch using a print yarn with a plain color in between.
