Crochet Your Own Cozy Throw Blanket
Hey everyone! The crochet throw blanket pattern I’m sharing today is perfect for anyone who loves to snuggle up with a cozy blanket for some well-deserved relaxation. The simple stitch pattern and the luxurious feel of the yarn make this throw super inviting and give it that perfect cottage-cozy vibe.
Just imagine yourself wrapped in this gorgeous throw, sipping tea, and diving into a great book. Plus, this pattern is totally beginner-friendly, so whether you’re new to crocheting or have been at it for years, this throw is a piece of cake to make.
Beginner Friendly Pattern
My goal as always was to design a throw blanket crochet pattern that is both fun and easy. I decided to work with the extended double crochet stitch, which adds a beautiful texture and drape to any crochet blanket.
Please don’t worry if you’ve never tried this stitch before – it’s easy to learn and super fun to work with. Once you get through the setup rows, the pattern is a breeze with just one row to remember for the rest of the blanket, making it perfect for working on while binge-watching your favourite shows. The repetitive nature of the stitch also makes it a meditative experience, letting you relax and unwind as you crochet. I’ve also put together a quick video tutorial on the stitch, which you can watch on this page below or on my Youtube Channel at the following link: Crochet Throw Blanket Stitch Video Tutorial.
So, watch the video, try out the extended double crochet stitch and then imagine the sense of accomplishment you’ll feel when you finish this beautiful throw and drape it over your favourite chair.
Yarn Selection for your Cozy Crochet Throw Blanket:
Choosing the right yarn to crochet your throw blanket with is super important. For this pattern, you’ll want to choose am aran weight yarn. If you’re not familiar, aran weight yarn is a medium-thickness yarn that’s just slightly thicker than worsted weight yarn. It’s great for right for creating warm, snuggly throws without being too heavy or too light.
I used Paintbox Yarns Simply Aran for my throw, and I absolutely love it. I often work with this brand of yarn because it is really affordable, which is always a plus, and the best part is that it comes in a ton of different colours to choose from. Whether you want something neutral and calming or bold and bright, there’s definitely a shade that’ll suit your style.
