This Everyday Throw Blanket Crochet Pattern is an easy blanket with a simple 1 row repeat. I used one of my favorite stitches, the Offset V Stitch. If you’ve ever used the V stitch then you know how simple it is. The only difference is with this version you place the v stitch in a dc instead of the ch space. It gives an interesting and textured look. You wouldn’t believe how fast this blanket works up! I had it finished in just 2 days! I don’t think I’ve ever finished a blanket so quickly. Because of the bulky yarn and the open stitch, it’s a quick and mindless project. Perfect for a gift!
