Nebula Bobble Star Blanket

The Nebula Bobble Star Blanket is a striking, star shaped crochet blanket featuring a beautifully textured bobble pattern that radiates outwards like a glowing nebula.

Designed with no holes, this blanket is wonderfully tactile and baby friendly, making it ideal for little hands to explore, while also looking lovely draped over your favourite sofa.

Made using aran/worsted weight yarn, this is a project that grows quickly and is very satisfying to work on. The bobbles are carefully spaced to help you keep track of your stitches, making counting easier and allowing you to relax into the rhythm of the pattern without constantly worrying about losing your place.

The design forms a repeating, rhythmic sequence that is calming and mindful to work through. It uses simple crochet stitches alongside a classic bobble stitch to create a rich, textured fabric that looks impressive without being fiddly or frustrating to make.

This pattern is designed for intermediate crocheters and is best suited to those who are comfortable following a pattern and working in the round. To help you customise your blanket, a yarn colour chart is included so you can accurately substitute other yarn colours and plan your own version. The pattern also includes clear photo tutorials to guide you through the construction and the key techniques.

The finished blanket is generously sized and works beautifully as a baby blanket, a nursery blanket, or a cosy statement throw for your home. It also makes a thoughtful and special handmade gift, whether for a new baby or for someone who appreciates bold texture and beautiful crochet.

The Nebula Bobble Star Blanket is now available to download in both UK and US Terminology in my Etsy shop, LoveCrafts shop, in my Payhip and on Ravelry.

The pattern includes full written instructions, stitch guidance, a yarn colour chart, and photo tutorials, giving you everything you need to create your own Nebula Bobble Star Blanket with confidence and enjoyment.
