Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Chain: Begin by making a foundation chain of 150 chains. This will form the width of your blanket.
2. Row 1:
   • In the fourth chain from the hook, make a double crochet (dc).
   • Continue making dc 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).
   • 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 the row with a dc in the top of the turning chain from the previous row.
   • 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 the row with a dc in the top of the turning chain from the previous row.
   • Turn your work.
5. Repeat: Continue repeating Rows 2 and 3 until your blanket measures approximately 60 inches in length. This will create the beautiful textured pattern reminiscent of a forest.
6. Border:
   • Once you reach the desired length, chain 1.
   • Single crochet (sc) evenly around the entire edge of the blanket.
   • In each corner, work 3 sc to create a rounded edge.
