Crochet Simple Soft Blanket Pattern" is a cozy and easy-to-follow guide for making your own soft blanket. Perfect for beginners, this pattern uses basic stitches to produce a beautifully textured throw that feels like a warm hug.
Crochet Simple Soft Blanket Pattern
Foundation Chain:
- Create a foundation chain in multiples of 3 (i.e., 3, 6, 9, 12, etc. up to the desired length).
In Row 1 (Setup Row):
- Start in the fourth chain from the hook and work a UK treble crochet (US double crochet). A UK treble crochet is worked as follows:
- Yarn over, insert the hook into the fourth chain.
- Yarn over, pull through to create three loops on the hook.
- Yarn over, pull through the first two loops.
- Yarn over, pull through the final two loops.
Continue to work one UK treble into every chain to the end of the row, turn your work.
Row 2 (also called Row 1 of the repeat):
- Perform the following steps into the very first stitch right where your working yarn is:
- Insert the hook, yarn over, pull through to complete a UK double crochet (US single crochet). Insert a stitch marker into this stitch to maintain straight edges.
- In that same stitch, make two more UK trebles (or two US double crochets).
- Skip the next two stitches, and in the third, repeat the same group of stitches: a UK double crochet followed by two UK trebles. Continue this pattern across to the end of the row, finishing with a UK double crochet in the top stitch of the turning chain.
Row 3 (also called Row 2 of the repeat):
- Turn your work, insert the hook into the first stitch and make one UK double crochet. Then go behind the vertical post of that stitch, yarn over, and complete another UK double crochet. This provides the height of a treble but without the gaps that a chain would create. Insert a stitch marker here.
- Now, work one UK treble (US double crochet) into every single stitch all the way along. When you reach the end, make your final treble into the stitch marker-marked stitch from the previous row. This completes Row 2 of the pattern.
Repeat:
- Alternate between Row 2 and Row 3 for the pattern repeat. Remember to finish on a Row 3 for a straight edge.
