Crochet Hook: Size H-8 (5.0 mm).
Scissors.
Yarn needle for weaving in ends.

Gauge:

Abbreviations:

ch: chain
dc: double crochet
st(s): stitch(es)
sl st: slip stitch

Instructions:

1. Starting Chain: Begin by making a foundation chain of 106 stitches (or any multiple of 2 plus 2 for width).

2. Row 1: In the 4th chain from the hook, make 1 dc. (This counts as the first dc and 2 ch of the next row.) 1 dc in each chain across. You will end up with 104 dc stitches. Turn your work.

3. Row 2: Ch 2 (counts as 1st dc), dc in the next st, *ch 1, skip the next stitch, dc in the next stitch.* Repeat from * to * across until the end. Turn your work.

4. Row 3: Ch 2, dc into the first ch-1 space, *ch 1, dc into the next ch-1 space.* Repeat from * to * until the end. Turn your work.

5. Rows 4-40: Repeat Rows 2 and 3 for a total of 39 more rows. Your blanket will start to take shape with a beautiful texture.

6. Final Row: After completing 40 rows, finish with a final row of dc across, ensuring to make 2 dc into the last stitch to maintain the edge.

7. Finishing: Cut yarn, leaving a long tail for weaving. Use a yarn needle to weave in all loose ends securely. To finish, you may choose to block your blanket to even out stitches and give it a polished look.

Optional Variations: Choose different colors or stripes to personalize your blanket! You can also make it larger by increasing the initial chain, just ensure to maintain the count as a multiple of 2 plus 2.
