After trying out several multiple stitches worked together, getting so far and then not liking the texture or look of the blanket.
Finally, I settled on the effect created by working sc/2dc in the same stitch it looked perfect in the white yarn and I loved how quickly a nice soft blanket started to develop. The texture reminds me of fluffy little white clouds.
This crochet stitch combination is really soft and warm.
This is a great pattern for working on whilst watching your favorite TV show as the repetition is so easy.

What you will need to crochet this baby blanket
I used Double Knit /light worsted in White, (11 balls of 100grms)
However, you CAN use any type of yarn and crochet hook size you wish by following
the instructions on how to make the blanket any size you wish.
The starting Chain is worked in multiples of 3 + 2
The pattern stitch is: sc/2dc in the same stitch
Chain 161 (very loosely, If you do not crochet loosely your work WILL CURL)
or consider starting with a bigger hook)
**NOTE: This made my blanket 45 inches WIDE Remember your tension may be different from mine, you may need to go up a hook or down a hook size,
OR change your starting chain to a length that you require as long as you have a Multiple of 3 + 2
Change here to a 4.50mm hook and continue using it for the rest of the blanket
Row 1: (1sc, 2dc) in 2nd ch from hook, * skip 2ch's, (1sc, 2dc) in next ch, * rpt from * * to last 3ch's, skip 2ch's, 1sc in last ch. Turn. (53 shells)
