Materials Needed

• Yarn: Worsted weight yarn, approximately 200 yards
• Crochet Hook: Size H/8 (5mm) crochet hook
• Gauge: 4 inches = 14 stitches x 16 rows in pattern

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Chain: Begin by making a foundation chain of 100 stitches. Make sure your chain is not too tight; it should be comfortable to work with.
2. Row 1: In the second chain from the hook, work 1 single crochet (sc). Then, *skip 2 chains, and in the next chain, work 5 double crochets (dc). Skip 2 chains again, and work 1 sc in the next chain. Repeat from * across the entire row. Once you reach the end, turn your work.
3. Row 2: Start this row by chaining 3 (this counts as your first double crochet). In the first single crochet from the previous row, work 2 double crochets. Now, *skip 2 double crochets, and in the next double crochet, work 1 single crochet. Skip 2 double crochets again, and in the next single crochet, work 5 double crochets. Repeat from * across the row, and finish with 3 double crochets in the last single crochet. Turn your work.
4. Repeat Rows: Continue to repeat Row 2 until your blanket measures approximately 36 inches in length, or until you run out of yarn. Keep an eye on your yarn supply to ensure you have enough to complete the pattern.
5. Finishing: Once you have reached your desired length, fasten off your yarn by cutting it and pulling it through the last loop. Weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle to give your blanket a clean finish.

And there you have it! Your very own Serene Waves Mini Blanket is complete. Enjoy the cozy warmth it brings to your home or gift it to a loved one. Happy crocheting!
