I have crocheted a baby afghan in the pattern commonly called granny stripes. I have seen it many places around the internet, so I don't have a particular pattern link. I used a baby yarn from "Big Lots" that is labeled as Hand Knitting Yarn For Baby Projects. I chained the length I wanted, using a G hook, and then crocheted a 3 dc shell in every other stitch. The next row was a 3 dc shell in the place between the shells, just like in a granny square. I chose to have three rows of each color, with 12 rows of white between them. I edged the blanket with a row of sc, followed by a row of sc, ch 3, sc.
As always, look on my Sharing page to find where I link my projects.

The blanket is lovely, I really like the coloured stripes in it.
Thanks for sharing- I am making a granny stripe Moses basket baby blanket at the moment and was wondering how to edge it- love the way you have done it. Very pretty!
You've made a lovely blanket, I love the colours.
Your blanket looks really cosy and I love the pastel striped colours.

Pastel colours are lovely - reminds me of ice-cream! Granny stripe is definitely on my 'to do' list.
