Materials Needed

• Worsted weight yarn in golden and cream
• Size H/8 (5.0 mm) crochet hook
• Scissors
• Tapestry needle for weaving in ends

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Chain: Using the golden yarn, create a slip knot and chain a multiple of 6 plus 3. For example, if you want a width of 30 inches, you can chain 63 (60 + 3).
2. Row 1:
   • Dc (double crochet) in the 4th chain from the hook. This counts as your first dc.
   • *Ch 2, skip the next 2 chains, dc in the next chain; repeat from * across the row.
   • Ensure you end with a dc in the last chain. Turn your work.
3. Row 2:
   • Ch 3 (this counts as your first dc for this row).
   • *Ch 2, skip the next 2 chains, dc in the next dc; repeat from * across the row.
   • End with a dc in the top of the turning chain from the previous row. Turn your work.
4. Pattern Repeat:
   • Repeat Row 2 for the pattern. After every 4 rows, switch colors between golden and cream yarn to create beautiful stripes.
5. Continue Crocheting:
   • Keep repeating the pattern until your blanket reaches the desired length. A good length for a throw blanket is around 50-60 inches.
6. Finishing:
   • Once you have reached your desired length, fasten off your yarn by cutting it, leaving a tail of about 6 inches.
   • Use a tapestry needle to weave in all ends securely.

Now you have your very own Golden Hour Crochet Lace Blanket! Enjoy the warmth and elegance it brings to your home.
