There’s nothing better than coming home at the end of the day to our favorite cozy blankets. They’ve always been a source of comfort, ever since we were babies. One of the first things we ever experienced was being wrapped up in a warm baby blanket. Baby blankets are keepsakes for this reason.

They hold onto memories for us and we keep them safe. That’s why a crochet baby blanket is the best gift for expectant parents in my opinion. These lace crochet baby blanket patterns are elegant and unique and bound to be a special fixture in a newborn’s life.
