Hi everyone! Today I’m sharing with you my newest crochet pattern, the Peppermint Throw Blanket. This is a great beginner-friendly crochet pattern that uses the famous ripple stitch. The Peppermint Throw Blanket consists of a one row repeat and can be made in a variety of different colors.
The Peppermint Throw Blanket is made using Hobby Lobby I Love This Yarn Metallic in traditional holiday colors. However, you can use any #4 worsted weight yarn you have in your yarn stash. I also used a size J-10 crochet hook. My favorite crochet hooks to use are the Clover Amour. You will also need a pair of scissors and a tapestry needle. Gather your supplies and let’s begin!
Peppermint Throw Blanket
Materials:
- (4) skeins each of Hobby Lobby I Love This Yarn Metallic in Red and White
- J-10 crochet hook
- Scissors
- Tapestry needle
Size:
43×56
Notes:
- To change up the sizing of this blanket, make a chain in a multiple of 14. Once satisfied, you will add 3 more chains to the end.
- The chain 3 at the beginning of each row counts as your first double crochet.
- You will change colors every 4 rows.
