There is something just so magical about combining 2 different yarns together to create something new! It’s one of my favorite ways to make blankets. I think The Starlight View Throw crochet pattern might be my new fave!
I took a super bulky weight (respun thick & quick) plus a worsted weight (landscapes breeze) and combined them by weaving the landscapes yarn and carrying it throughout! This was SO much fun to do. It was a nice change than just doing normal stitches. It took a couple of rows to get my fingers used to it but after that, this blanket basically flew off my hook. It took just about 1 week from start to finish.
You’ll be using an offset double crochet V-St throughout the entirety of the blanket. The part that makes it so special is carrying the second yarn along while you go. There is a very specific way on how you carry the yarn so be sure to read the info below or check out the video tutorial for a quick rundown before you get started!
I had to do it. I just couldn’t help myself. After making The Luna Cardigan using Lion Brand Go For Fleece Sherpa I KNEW I had to make a blanket. The Forever Winter Throw is here and definitely my coziest blanket pattern! Not only is it the coziest but it’s also the easiest.
Even a beginner can do this project! The entire blanket is worked up in single crochet stitches. You can easily feel your stitches as you go and I even made a video tutorial to help you out!
If you want your Forever Winter Throw to be bigger just add more chains to the starting chain and add more rows until you are happy with the size! I only used 7 skeins for mine.
