The Bobble Stitch Blanket Crochet Pattern
For my blanket crocheters, I’ve got a special pattern to kick off the new year – a super cozy, chunky bobble stitch crochet blanket. Designed for the hustle of our busy lives, this is a super quick crochet pattern that won’t take forever to finish as it’s crocheted with bulky yarn. I have designed this pattern to be the ultimate rewarding project to start your year on a creative high note!
Design Inspiration
I knew I had to create a bobble stitch crochet blanket pattern when I shared my knitted bobble stitch blanket and received many messages saying, “Hey, make this in crochet.” So, I did. I created this throw to be the perfect project to practice the bobble stitch and keep your couch looking effortlessly stylish at the same time. The herringbone half double stitches provide a soft, textured backdrop, while the bobbles create a classic diamond rhombus grid that matches any kind of room aesthetic.
How to Crochet the Bobble Stitch
If you have never crocheted a bobble stitch, don’t worry. Bobbles are basically like adding a pop of popcorn to your work – but without the butter. Imagine you’re drawing with yarn, and every so often you want to make a dot that really stands out – that’s your bobble. You basically keep looping the yarn through the same stitch, building it up until it’s got a nice, plump texture that says, ‘Hey, look at me!’ Then you secure it, and it just sits there like a little yarn bubble, giving your project some serious personality. It’s like 3D art for crocheted blankets or sweaters.

If you’d rather make a baby blanket (or alter the width in any way) I have also included the multiples for the number of chains required for the foundation chain. Simply chain until you reach your desired width, and then add or subtract chains to match!
