Textured Blue Crochet Blanket

Materials:

Yarn: 100% Acrylic yarn, medium worsted weight (Category 4), approximately 800 yards
Hook: Size H (5.0 mm) crochet hook
Scissors
Tapestry needle for weaving in ends

Gauge:

To make sure your blanket matches the intended size, measure 4" x 4" in your crochet by working in double crochet stitches. Aim for 14 stitches and 8 rows for the gauge. Adjust your hook size if necessary to achieve this.

Abbreviations:

ch = chain
dc = double crochet
sk = skip
st = stitch
rep = repeat

Instructions:

Foundation Row:

Start by chaining 120 stitches. This length will give you a blanket approximately 36 inches wide. Adjust the number of chains as desired for a different width.

Row 1:

In the 4th chain from the hook, make 1 double crochet. This first double crochet counts as your first stitch. Continue making 1 double crochet in each chain across the row. (You should have 118 double crochets in total by the end of this row.) Turn your work.

Row 2:

Ch 3 (this counts as the first dc), then make 1 dc in the next stitch (the stitch right below where you just added the chain). Now, you'll skip one stitch and make 1 dc in the next stitch. Continue to repeat this pattern across the row until you reach the end, making sure to end with a dc in the last stitch. Turn your work.

Row 3:

Ch 3 and then make a dc in the first stitch. Now, make a dc in the skipped stitch directly below. This creates a lovely textured pattern. Repeat this for the rest of the row, turning at the end.

Row 4 to Row 54:

Continue repeating Rows 2 and 3 until your blanket reaches the desired length, about 54 inches is a nice size for a throw blanket.

Finishing:

Once you’ve reached your desired length, fasten off the yarn (cut it leaving a 6’’ tail), and pull through the last loop. Use your tapestry needle to weave in any loose ends on the underside of the blanket so they’re not visible. It’s also a good idea to block your blanket by wetting it and laying it flat to dry, which helps to even out and define your stitches.

Variations:

You can change colors after each 10 rows for a striped effect, or you can use a different yarn texture to add dimension. Have fun with it!

This textured blue crochet blanket not only keeps you warm but adds a touch of elegance to your décor. Enjoy your crafting journey!
