The two stitches that you’ll be using for this pattern is the Suzette Stitch and a variation of the Extended Single Crochet Stitch. I even made a step-by-step video tutorial, so you could totally use that pattern to make this one. I just adore this design, so much so, that I created a free crochet dishcloth pattern based on this design. It’s also great for crochet beginners to learn two different stitches! By the end of this crochet blanket, you’ll know these two stitches by heart! Since your using different stitches, it really allows you to get good at two different stitches. One thing that I love about this crochet blanket is that it reminds me of a sampler crochet blanket. But by putting these together, you get a really cool textured-looking crochet blanket. The Suzette stitch creates more of a smoother fabric, while the extended single crochet stitch, creates more of a bumpy texture. So going back to my blanket design, the first stitch used is the Suzette stitch, this stitch reminds me of the calm waters, while the second stitch (Extended Single Crochet) reminds me of the cloudy days on the beach. I love both of these days because it reminds me that every day is different and you have to cherish each day. Or you can also have those days where it’s cloudy and the water is having a rough day, going in and out at a high speed.

You can have one day that’s absolute bliss where the water is calm and you have the perfect little breeze while the sun is out. I love going to the beach, but not every day is the same. This textured crochet blanket was inspired by the rolling waves on the beach. It’s made using a series of chains, single crochet, and double crochet. I love how this crochet blanket came out and I’m so happy to be sharing it today with all of you. I worked on this pattern on the way to work and on my breaks.

It’s simple and works up in a matter of days. My latest design and free pattern on the blog is this beautiful cotton textured crochet blanket. See my full disclosure here Textured Crochet Blanket This post contains affiliate links, which means I make a small commission at no extra cost to you.
