Surprise your little ones with this fun and unique Balloon Dog design


I’ve got something exciting for you: the Balloon Dog C2C crochet design. It’s not just any ordinary design; it’s nostalgic and visually captivating. Trust me, you’ll fall in love with it.

It’s an excellent way to channel your creative energy. I made the original graph with the gray and blue color combo, but really it’s up to you. You can pick the colors and customize the size, making it uniquely yours.

And here’s the cherry on top: these blankets make fantastic personalized gifts. You can tailor it to celebrate special occasions or simply match someone’s favorite colors. It’s thoughtful and heartfelt.

But it’s not just about aesthetics. Your balloon dog blanket is both functional and cozy. It can keep you warm during chilly evenings, serve as a modern throw for your sofa, or add a touch of art to your living space.

Completing this design will give you that sweet sense of accomplishment. No matter what your skill level is, novice or pro, this pattern will make it easy for you to create adorable crochet pieces.

Like the rest of my animal crochet patterns, it is written in two ways – C2C and row by row, complete with helpful charts. 

This way, you can use the C2C pattern for making oversized pieces, while the row-by-row option is for smaller projects like wall decor and baby blankets. 

If you have plans to create a large dog balloon blanket or bedspread, I recommend checking out this extensive guide on corner-to-corner crochet. It has a bunch of awesome video tutorials, helpful tips, and great references to help you master the C2C crochet technique.

When you’re ready, just scroll down below to grab your free downloadable dog graph, and get started on this cute project!

Balloon Dog is a digital download (available in PDF format only) that you can use to crochet a blanket using various techniques, such as C2C, Mini C2C, SC, HDC, Tapestry Crochet, etc.

You can also use this design for other crafts such as knitting, cross-stitch, diamond beads painting, Hama beads, plastic canvas, and any other crafts that use pixelated images.

Balloon Dog pattern details


Balloon Dog graph and finished project sizes

The size of the Balloon Dog graph is 100 squares high by 80 squares wide.

Just a heads up—the size of your project might turn out a bit different depending on what stitch you choose, the size of your hook, the yarn you use, and how tight you stitch.

Also, the amount of yarn you’ll need for each color may vary based on your technique, stitch choice, hook size, yarn weight, and tension.

Use the Finished Size & Yarn Quantity Calculator to get an idea of how much yarn you will need and how big your project will be.

Color palette for Balloon Dog design

I used these 4 colors: gray, black, blue, and dark blue to create this design, but feel free to use your own color palette. Have fun with it!

I’ve calculated the number of squares used by each color to make it easier for you to calculate how much yarn you will need to complete your project.
