The Silver Clusters Baby Blanket Pattern

Posted in September 2024, The Silver Clusters Baby Blanket Pattern by


The Silver Clusters Baby Blanket is crocheted using a variation of the crochet moss stitch (see image below). The baby blanket is then finished with a crochet moss stitch border. The variation of the crochet moss stitch pattern forms clusters adding texture to the design. This stitch pattern is simple, making it a satisfying beginner friendly project that does not take long to finish. The repetitive nature of this variation of the crochet moss stitch is quite meditative and relaxing. Plus, the worsted weight cotton blend yarn used makes the blanket suitable for babies and can be used year-round.

Tutorial Series: How to Join Round

Posted in How to Join Round, Tutorial Series by

Knitting in the round, also known as circular knitting, is a versatile technique. It allows knitters to create seamless items like hats, sweaters, and socks. Using double pointed needles (DPNs) or circular knitting needles, it’s possible to join rounds seamlessly. For knitting in the round, the first stitch is joined to the last stitch in the cast on row. The video and written instructions below show how I join round using circular knitting needles.

Written Instructions for How to Join Round:

  • Cast on the required number of stitches using a circular knitting needle.
  • Place a beginning of round marker (BOR) on the right circular knitting needle
  • Check to see all the stitches are facing inwards in one direction in the circular knitting needle
  • Without twisting the stitches, knit the stitch on the right circular needle to the first stitch on the left circular needle to join round
  • Continue knitting in the round as specified in the pattern
