Forest Berry Crossweave Throw

Create a beautiful, richly textured crochet blanket with the Forest Berry Crossweave Crochet Throw Blanket Pattern. This original crochet pattern features the Crossweave Stitch, a dimensional two-row repeat that creates a woven, criss-cross texture throughout the blanket. The Crossweave Stitch was developed by Pattern Princess and combines Granny-inspired simplicity with beautiful crossed cluster texture. Once the setup rows are complete, the main stitch pattern works in a repeating two-row sequence. The crossed cluster row takes a little concentration at first, but the stitch becomes easier to recognize as you work. 8 Blanket Sizes Included This crochet blanket pattern includes eight suggested sizes: • Baby • Lap/Small Throw • Medium Throw • Large Throw • X-Large Throw • Twin • Queen • King The pictured blanket is the Lap/Small Throw size. About the Crossweave Stitch The Crossweave Stitch is an original stitch developed by Pattern Princess. The stitch creates a dimensional, woven appearance that works beautifully for blankets, throws, scarves, pillows, and other crochet projects. It looks especially beautiful with variegated and long-color-change yarns, allowing the colors to move through the raised texture and create a rich, woven effect.
