Crochet blankets are amazing on their own but if you line a crochet blanket with soft flannel fabric, it becomes so much more. In this tutorial, I am going to pull out my sewing knowledge from when I was a seamstress and give you all the steps for adding a liner to a crochet blanket. I have a video tutorial walking you through the process using a sewing machine and a second tutorial showing how you can hand sew the liner in instead.
I know everyone has a different level of experience when it comes to sewing and using a sewing machine. If you have any questions that are not answered by this tutorial, please leave them in the comments below.
