Materials Needed

• Yarn: Worsted weight yarn in golden yellow
• Crochet Hook: 5.5 mm crochet hook
• Gauge: 12 stitches and 8 rows = 4 inches in pattern stitch

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Chain: Start by chaining a multiple of 12 plus 3. For example, you can chain 39 (which is 36 + 3) to create a width of approximately 30 inches. Adjust the number of chains based on your desired width.
2. Row 1: Double crochet (dc) in the 4th chain from the hook. This counts as your first double crochet. Continue to double crochet in each chain across the entire row. Once you reach the end, turn your work.
3. Row 2: Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet). Now, *skip the next 2 double crochets, then in the next double crochet, work (dc, ch 1, dc). Skip the next 2 double crochets again, and then dc in the next 2 double crochets. Repeat from * across the row, making sure to end with a dc in the top of the turning chain from Row 1. Turn your work.
4. Row 3: Chain 3 (counts as first double crochet). Now, double crochet in each double crochet and chain-1 space across the row. Once you reach the end, turn your work.
5. Repeat: Continue repeating Rows 2 and 3 until your blanket reaches your desired length. This pattern creates a beautiful wave effect, so feel free to adjust the length based on your preference.
6. Finishing: Once you have reached the desired length, fasten off your yarn by cutting it and pulling it through the last loop. Weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle to ensure a clean finish.
