Baby Blanket pattern to crochet: Solas Caomh



Irish for “tender comfort,” Sólás Caomh was shaped by Jodi Euchner for a beloved baby. The engaging cable pattern provides its own tender comfort to crocheters as they shape the soft cotton-wool blanket into an heirloom.

Yarn Weight: #3 – Light
 Gauge: 9 sts and 5 rows = 2" of alternating dc, hdc rows. 
Hook: Size G/6 (4 mm). Adjust hook size if necessary to obtain correct gauge.
