Materials Needed

• Worsted weight yarn in cream
• Worsted weight yarn in blue
• Gold metallic thread for accents
• 5.5 mm crochet hook

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Chain: Using the cream yarn, create a slipknot and chain 120. This will form the foundation of your blanket.
2. Row 1: In the 4th chain from the hook, make a double crochet (dc). Continue to make a dc in each chain across the row. At the end of the row, 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 stitch, then make a back post double crochet (bpdc) around the next stitch; repeat from * across the row. Finish the row with a dc in the top of the turning chain. Turn your work.
4. Pattern Repeat: Continue to repeat Row 2 for your pattern. Remember to alternate between the cream and blue yarn every 10 rows. This will create a lovely textured effect throughout your blanket.
5. Length Check: Once you have reached your desired length for the blanket, it’s time to finish up. Fasten off your yarn by cutting it, leaving a tail of about 6 inches, and pulling the tail through the last loop on your hook.
6. Adding Gold Accents: Take the gold metallic thread and weave it through the stitches of your blanket randomly. This will add a touch of elegance and shimmer to your finished piece. You can use a tapestry needle to help with this step.
7. Finishing Touches: Finally, weave in all ends using a tapestry needle. This will help to secure your work and give your blanket a neat finish.

Now you have your very own Elegant Crochet Textured Blanket with Gold Accents! Enjoy the cozy warmth and stylish look it brings to your home.
