It allows you to select your colors and the amount of rows you’ll need and then it generates the pattern for you! If you don’t like it, resubmit your selections until you find one that is visually appealing to you. The coolest part about the project was the random stripe generator I found online , which I used to create the inconsistent stripe pattern. Using a “J” or 6 mm hook, I chained 120 and did 150 rows (for a total of 18,000 stitches!).įor the border, I did one row of single crochet (sc) and then on top of that, one row of double crochet (dc) all the way around – that’s it! The finished size is approximately 50 x 60″. The pattern I used was simple, the entire blanket is crocheted in double crochet (dc), nothing fancy.
