Build-An-Arch baby blanket/afghan is THIRD in a SERIES of new baby blankets designed specifically for photography props OR new baby!
This pattern is a bit larger than our other two blankets in the series, for those who like a bigger baby afghan.
It is rated BEGINNER, but you must KEEP TRACK of a four (4) row pattern repeat. Good practice!
This blanket/afghan is also great for NEW BABY! It is fun to crochet and quick to make!

She asked me to design some crochet photo props (that are so popular today) she could use for her adorable babies. This venture has blossomed into a great partnership for us! I design and crochet baby items Gina wishes to use in her business and she showcases them beautifully with her professional photography. It is a match made in heaven!
Needlework came naturally to me. My mother taught me to knit at age 10, and I haven't been without a needle or hook in my hand since. Crochet has been my passion for over 30 years. I have been lucky enough to turn that passion into a design business for nearly 20 years. I love color! Skeins of yarn all together contain some of the most wonderful color! My most favorite thing is to look at all the glorious colors of yarn, combine it with a hook, and turn it into something cute and whimsical. I guess I never grew up ... lucky me!
