Materials Needed
- Yarn: Worsted weight yarn in the following colors:
- Sage Green
- Soft Cream
- Sky Blue
- Crochet Hook: Size I/9 (5.5 mm) crochet hook
- Gauge: 4 inches = 14 stitches and 16 rows in seed stitch
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Foundation Chain:
With the sage green yarn, make a slip knot and chain 120 stitches. Ensure your chain is not too tight to allow for easy stitching in the next steps.
- Row 1:
Starting in the second chain from the hook, perform the following stitches across the chain:
- Single crochet (sc) in the first chain.
- Double crochet (dc) in the next chain.
Continue alternating between sc and dc until you reach the last chain, where you will finish with a sc. You should have a total of 120 stitches in this row.
- Row 2:
Chain 1 and turn your work. In this row, you will alternate the stitches as follows:
- Double crochet (dc) in the first stitch.
- Single crochet (sc) in the next stitch.
Continue this pattern across the row, ending with a dc in the last stitch. This will create the seed stitch texture.
- Color Changes:
Repeat Row 2, alternating colors every 10 rows. Use the following color sequence:
- 10 rows of Soft Cream
- 10 rows of Sky Blue
- 10 rows of Sage Green
Continue this pattern until your blanket measures approximately 60 inches in length.
- Finishing:
Once your blanket reaches the desired length, fasten off your yarn. To do this, cut the yarn leaving a 6-inch tail, pull the tail through the last loop on your hook, and tighten. Weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle to ensure a neat finish.
