Recommended for intermediate to advanced crocheters, this baby blanket is designed in panels which are sewn together, and then bordered by more crochet. This design uses 12 balls in total of Milford Regency 4ply yarn: 2 of Natural Mix, 6 of White, 3 of Natural and 3 of Grey.

You will need two stitch markers to keep track of where you are in the heart motif section, which is also the most intricate section. The other two sections are simpler: one is a textured panel and the other requires two colours to make the little, almost heart-shaped stitches.
