C2C Christmas animal blanket crochet pattern instructions

Make each of the four Christmas animal panels using the graphs or written instructions below. Once all four panels are finished, add a border to each panel, sew them together in a 2 × 2 layout, and finish with the outer blanket border.

Want to make just one Christmas animal panel? You can also follow my standalone C2C patterns for the Christmas llama, Christmas sloth, Christmas reindeer, and French bulldog.

Border for each panel

After completing a panel, join your chosen border yarn in any corner. Ch 1.

Work (2 sc, ch 2, 2 sc) in the first corner block. Continue around the panel, working 2 sc in each C2C block space along the sides and (2 sc, ch 2, 2 sc) in each remaining corner block.

Join with a sl st to the first sc and fasten off.

Repeat for all four panels before assembling the blanket.

Assembling the blanket

Arrange the four finished panels in a 2 × 2 layout, with two panels across and two panels down. Make sure all the animal designs are facing upright.

Use locking stitch markers to hold the panels together if desired.

Using a yarn needle and your chosen seaming yarn, sew the adjoining edges together to assemble the blanket.

Adding the blanket border

After sewing all four panels together, join your chosen border yarn in any outer corner of the blanket. Ch 2.

Work 1 hdc in each stitch around the outer edge, working (hdc, ch 2, hdc) in each corner.

Join with a sl st to the first hdc and fasten off.

Finishing

Weave in your ends. Block if desired.
