This crochet pattern will help you create a beautiful and cozy sweet stripes blanket. With its simple and repetitive stitch pattern, it's perfect for beginners and experienced crocheters alike!
16 stitches and 12 rows = 4 inches in double crochet
The finished blanket measures approximately 36 inches by 48 inches.
Start by chaining 150 stitches.
Row 1: In the 4th chain from the hook, work 1 double crochet (dc). Skip 3 chains, then work 5 double crochet (dc) in the next chain. Skip 3 chains, then work 1 dc in the next chain. Repeat this pattern across the row, ending with 1 dc in the last chain.
Row 2: Turn your work and chain 3. Work 5 dc in the first chain-3 space. Skip the next 2 stitches, then work 1 dc in the next stitch. Repeat this pattern across the row, ending with 1 dc in the top of the turning chain from the previous row.
Repeat Row 2 until your blanket measures approximately 48 inches in length, or until you've used up all of your yarn.
Fasten off and weave in all ends.
Wash and block your blanket according to the yarn manufacturer's instructions. Your sweet stripes crochet blanket is now complete!
