The Yarn That’s Perfect For This Crochet Throw!

Can you imagine yourself snuggled up in this crochet throw blanket on a chilly fall day in front of a warm crackling fire? I know I can! I am all about cozy, and this blanket fits that description to a t!

I used Bernat Blanket Yarn from Yarnspirations, which happens to be one of the softest yarns imaginable! If you’d like to see more patterns with this yarn check out my post about the blankets you can make with this cozy yarn.

Once you work This type of yarn you will see that it is perfect for a blanket because it crochets up so fast! Bulky yarn equals faster crochet projects.

You need to try it this yarn. You won’t regret it. Promise! I found mine at my local craft store, and it was pretty inexpensive with a coupon or if you want you can check out Amazon too!

This Blanket Uses Only One Crochet Stitch!

This chunky crochet blanket pattern uses just one crochet stitch! Yep, one! I ended up using single crochets for the entire crochet pattern. The single crochets make it a great beginner crochet pattern for a new crocheter to try. If you can single crochet then you definitely can crochet this blanket!

You can do it! Promise! I worked this example up in less than two weeks in the evening and watching my daughter at swim practice.

After you crochet that square weigh it on a small kitchen scale. That will tell you how much yarn is in a 4 × 4 square which is 6 stitches by 8 rows. With a little math you can figure out exactly how much yarn you will need for each size listed above. Notes Written in US terms
