After so many appliques themed blanket, we saw that you really like them and decided to continue crocheting them. Our first Undersea Sweetness blanket is also free here on the blog and The second one Jungle Friends applique serie as well. You can check them and I am sure you will like them as much as the Forest friend one. If you follow us for a while you are familiar with all of them so less talk more work. Take your crochet hook, your yarn and lets start to crochet this beautiful, educational and fun baby blanket together.

The Yarn :

For this Forest friend blanket I used Stylecraft yarn which is DK ( double knit ) weight yarn. I have a huge amount of different colors in my stash and for applique themed blankets it works perfectly. Of course you can always use a different weight yarn for the blanket than mine but for the appliques I always suggest to use thinner yarn – light weight category 3 yarn, DK weight yarn because all of the crochet appliques has too much details and with worsted weight yarn they can become too big. Again it depends how big you want to make your blanket.

NOTES

• This pattern is written in US Crochet term.
• Read the pattern carefully and check the pictures.
• Use safety eyes, buttons or if you are going to use the applique for decoration on blanket crochet eyes (Start with MR and secure with slip knot. Make 5 sc into the ring. )
• You can sew applique before you attach it to your project or you can sew it directly to the project. If you use smaller hook and thinner yarn your applique will become smaller and can be used for decorating clothes, hats and etc.
•  If you don’t know how to attach your appliques on your projects or just want to learn new ways here is a video tutorial how we attach our appliques on our projects in 3 different ways
