I really like it all one colour.

Fewer ends to sew in too! Thanks for your help guys glad I asked here.

I do too! Wish I hadn’t shown my mum now. I’ve just found a pic of it in a light solid colour so I might just do this without the ribbon to tone it down. It’s so difficult to choose when it’s for someone else.

Both are beautiful, what a wonderful gift to give a new Mum

I think I'm edging towards the plain one, only because I think the plain will go with any baby colours.

I've just tried to look to see if both patterns are the same?

Thank you. First pic I come across on fb with a link to an Etsy page, the second is from that Etsy page.

I think the plain one has the edge - it would be lovely in all blue as well.

My Mum made our son a similar blanket when I had him, still have it - it's thicker than this pattern, not as fine. It's cherished although doesn't see the light of day.

This is a gift that is passed on - an heirloom piece. Just lovely x

I need to make a crochet blanket for a baby boy and found a pattern that I like but after showing my mum what I plan to make she said it’s a bit OTT
So, I’d like some opinions please, is my mum right and I should just do something a bit more plain? Any recommendations on a pattern would also be appreciated.View attachment 4057494

I love this although I prefer it in all one colour.
It will make a beautiful gift.
My go to for a baby blanket is the Call the Midwife pattern. Its so pretty and works up quickly.
