Woodland animal crochet baby blanket pattern

This woodland animal crochet baby blanket pattern brings a whole forest of animals into one cozy handmade project. Working one animal panel at a time makes the blanket easy to enjoy in smaller sections, and the finished design is a sweet choice for a woodland nursery, baby shower, or handmade gift.

Quick answer

This woodland animal crochet baby blanket pattern is an advanced-beginner project made from 12 individual 25 × 25 C2C animal panels using worsted weight (#4) yarn and a G-6 (4 mm) crochet hook. Each animal includes a graph and written color counts, and the bordered panels are sewn together in a 3 × 4 layout. The finished blanket measures approximately 41 × 54 inches (104 × 137 cm), including the outer border.

Gauge

8 C2C blocks (ch 3 + 3 dc) = 4 inches (10 cm)

Learn how to check crochet gauge before you begin so you can adjust your hook size if needed.

Crochet abbreviations

• dc = double crochet stitch
• sc = single crochet stitch
• hdc = half double crochet stitch
• C2C = corner-to-corner
• ch/chs = chain/chains
• st/sts = stitch/stitches
• sl st = slip stitch

Pattern notes

• Each C2C block is made with ch 3 + 3 dc.
• Ch 6 to begin a new row and ch 3 to begin each new block.
• In the written instructions, “white x 4” means to work 4 C2C blocks in white, not 4 individual stitches.
• Change colors on the final yarn-over of the last double crochet in the block.
• Weave in yarn ends as you go to make finishing easier.
• Rows marked ↙ are right-side rows; you are looking at the front of the panel.
• Rows marked ↗ are wrong-side rows; you are looking at the back of the panel.
• The pattern is written in US crochet terms.

Woodland animal C2C panels

Border for each animal panel

Join white yarn with a sl st along one edge of the panel, away from a corner. Ch 1; the beginning chain does not count as a stitch.

Work 2 sc along the side of each C2C block around the panel. Place the first sc in the same stitch where you joined the yarn; this counts as the first of the 2 sc for that block. In each corner, work (2 sc, ch 2, 2 sc).

Join with a sl st to the first sc. Fasten off and weave in the ends.

Joining the panels

Arrange the panels right side up in a 3 × 4 grid, making sure all animals face the same direction.

Using white yarn and a yarn needle, sew the panels together through the corresponding border stitches, keeping the rows and columns aligned.

Adding the blanket border

Join white yarn with a sl st along one outer edge of the blanket, away from a corner. Ch 2; the beginning chain does not count as a stitch.

Work 1 hdc in the same stitch where you joined the yarn and in each stitch around the blanket. In each corner, work (hdc, ch 2, hdc).

Join with a sl st to the first hdc. Fasten off and weave in the ends.

Finishing

Weave in any remaining yarn ends. Block the blanket if desired to help the panels lie flat and the edges look neat.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to match gauge for this blanket?

To match the listed size, yes. Gauge affects the size of each C2C panel and the finished blanket. Check your first completed panel against the listed measurement and aim to keep all 12 panels the same size.

Can I make the blanket bigger or smaller?

Yes. Using a different yarn weight or hook size will change the size of the panels and finished blanket. Use the same yarn and hook combination for all 12 panels so they remain consistent in size. A wider outer border can also add a small amount to the finished dimensions.
