Flat Granny Blanket

"Made using only double crochet stitches, this is a very beginner-friendly blanket pattern. This blanket can be worked in one color, in granny stripes, or using a variegated yarn as I have done here. We add a simple, yet elegant, border in a contrasting color which really sets it off. As written, this blanket is a medium sized throw measuring approx. 54” x 68” (137 cm x 173 cm) before adding the small border. This is a great size to cuddle up on the couch or to lay at the foot of the bed. The sizing of this blanket can be adjusted using the information below listed in the “pattern notes”."
