• Crochet Hook: Size K (6.5 mm) crochet hook
• Gauge: 8 stitches and 6 rows = 4 inches in pattern stitch

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Chain: Begin by chaining a multiple of 6 plus 2. For example, if you want a blanket that is 36 inches wide, you would chain 98 (96 + 2).
2. Row 1: In the 4th chain from the hook, make a double crochet (dc). Continue to make a dc in each chain across the foundation chain. Once you reach the end, turn your work.
3. Row 2: Chain 2 (this counts as your first half double crochet (hdc)). Now, *make a front post double crochet (fpdc) around the next dc, then make a back post double crochet (bpdc) around the next dc; repeat from * across the row. End this row with an hdc in the top of the turning chain. Turn your work.
4. Row 3: Chain 3 (this counts as your first dc). Now, *make a bpdc around the next fpdc, then make a fpdc around the next bpdc; repeat from * across the row. End this row with a dc in the top of the turning chain. Turn your work.
5. Repeat Rows 2 and 3: Continue repeating Rows 2 and 3 until your blanket reaches the desired length. This creates the beautiful textured pattern that makes this blanket so special.
6. Finishing: Once you have reached your desired length, fasten off your yarn. Use a yarn needle to weave in any loose ends, ensuring your blanket has a clean finish.

Now you have your very own cozy textured crochet blanket! Enjoy the warmth and style it brings to your home.
