The Best Way to crochet blankets
Hey there! 👋 Want to make a super cozy blanket? Here's how to get started:
What You'll Need:
- Crochet hook (size H/8 or I/9 is good for beginners)
- Yarn (acrylic is cheap and good for practice!)
- Scissors
- A measuring tape
Easy Steps:
- Start with a chain stitch that's as wide as you want your blanket
- Learn the single crochet stitch first - it's the easiest!
- Work row by row until your blanket is as long as you want
- Keep your tension even (not too tight or loose)
Pro Tip: Start with a small practice square before making a whole blanket!
