Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Chain: Start by making a foundation chain that is a multiple of 4 plus 2. For example, you can chain 50 (which is 48 + 2). This will set the width of your blanket.
2. Row 1: In the 4th chain from the hook, make a double crochet (dc). Then, make a 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 with a dc in the top of the turning chain from the previous row, then 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 with a dc in the top of the turning chain from the previous row, then turn your work.
5. Repeat: Continue repeating Rows 2 and 3 until your blanket reaches the desired length. You can make it as long as you like, depending on your preference!
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 looks neat and tidy.
