Materials Needed

• Yarn: Super bulky cotton yarn in peach
• Hook: Size N/P (10 mm) crochet hook
• Gauge: 4 stitches and 4 rows = 4 inches in pattern

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Start with a Foundation Chain: Chain 60 loosely. Make sure your chain is not too tight, as this will affect the overall flexibility of your blanket.
2. Row 1: Double crochet (dc) in the fourth chain from the hook. This counts as your first dc. Continue to double crochet in each chain across the row. Once you reach the end, turn your work.
3. Row 2: Chain 3 (this counts as your first dc for this row). Now, *skip the next dc, then front post double crochet (fpdc) around the next dc. After that, double crochet (dc) in the skipped dc; repeat from * across the row. When you reach the end, turn your work.
4. Row 3: Chain 3 (counts as your first dc). Double crochet in each stitch across the row. Once you reach the end, turn your work.
5. Repeat Rows 2 and 3: Continue alternating between Row 2 and Row 3 until your blanket reaches your desired length. Keep measuring your work to ensure it fits your needs.
6. Finishing Touch: Once you have reached the desired length, finish with a row of single crochet around the entire edge of the blanket. This will create a neat border and help prevent any curling at the edges.
7. Fasten Off: Cut your yarn, leaving a long tail. Pull the tail through the last loop to secure it. Weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle to give your blanket a polished finish.
