Striping Eyelets Easy Crochet Blanket Pattern
The Striping Eyelets Easy Crochet Blanket Pattern is the perfect crochet throw to use when you’re just a little chilly. This pattern uses its design, rather than color change, to create defined stripes of eyelet across its surface. It is also made with bulky yarn and a large crochet hook, which means it works up much faster than other crochet blanket patterns. This pattern would be great to have over the back of the couch for those I’m-cold-during-a-movie moments, or it would be great to give as a gift to a special friend.
