Inspiration for Crochet Blanket
This crochet blanket is actually the first crochet pattern that I wrote. It’s fitting that the Chloe ribbed crochet blanket is the first pattern that I wrote because it was for my dear friend who has continuously told me to share my crochet creations with the world. She was the first to order something from me. Her eldest daughter already had a crocheted blanket from her grandmother. She didn’t have one for her youngest and asked if I could make one with some texture. Of course I said that I would create one for her, and I thought it was perfect to name the pattern after her daughter, thus the Chloe Blanket. The turnout was a gorgeous ribbed crochet blanket.

Yarn for this crochet blanket
The perfect yarn for this ribbed crochet blanket is Red Heart With Love. This yarn is 100% acrylic and is ultra soft. It comes in a 7oz skein and has a wide range of colors to suit anyones preferences. I also love this yarn because it can be machine washed and tumbled dry.
