About Plaza Blanket

Plaza Blanket is our baby blanket pick, and it is a pick rather than a default — we looked at the shelf twice before leaving it on. Unreviewed so far — read that as untested rather than as a verdict. It comes from Knitting with Chopsticks. The save count sits at 131, and a number that size usually means the file does what its preview promises.

We check the yardage before starting a small gift, because running out twenty stitches from the end is how a quick make becomes a parked one. We would use it the way the listing hints — basketweave — and that is also where we would start if you are trying it for the first time. Open it big before you commit. At thumbnail size every pattern on this shelf looks equally good, which is the problem with thumbnails.

Filed as crochet blanket, crochet guide, crochet instructions and crochet pattern. Tags are a rough instrument, but a consistent set like that usually means the file is what it claims. The neighbouring searches are keychain, keyring, coaster, flower and bag — worth a look if this particular pattern is close but not quite it. The searches that bring people to this shelf are graduation gift ideas, crochet gift ideas, handmade gift ideas for best friend, crochet bookmark and baby shower gift ideas — this one sits in the middle of that group rather than off to the side of it. You will find it among the small crochet gifts, sorted next to everything that does roughly the same job.

How to use this pattern

  1. Download the PDF from Creative Fabrica and check the yardage and hook size before you shop — a small gift rarely needs a full skein.
  2. Work the gauge swatch anyway on anything that has to fit, like a hat or a bracelet; on a stuffed toy you can skip it.
  3. Stuff toys firmer than feels right and close the seam with a ladder stitch — a gift gets squeezed, and loose stuffing shows within a week.
  4. Make the first one a week before you need it. The second one is always the one you give away.
