As I mentioned in a previous post for my On-The-Go Crochet Baby Blanket, I was first introduced to crocheting by my mother-in-law.  Since then, we have been sharing fun patterns and ideas, and we are always creating something.  I always have to smile when she shares something with me that is so adorable.  Then, I laugh when she tells me that she whipped it up in an afternoon.  Having four crazy kiddos running around my house, I can only dream of having an entire afternoon to focus on a crochet project.  Because of this, I must depend on her to continue creating and making me smile.  

Over the years, I cannot even begin to count the number of blankets she has made for my children.  So many different colors, so many different stitches and patterns.  And it never gets old.  Our oldest daughter is now 10, and she still gets excited when Grandma Pam gives her something she made.  This particular Double Crochet Striped Blanket was one of those random gifts that my mother-in-law created and gave to my children.  While she does like to tackle challenging patterns at times, this blanket is a perfect project for all crocheters, even beginners.  I called it the Double Crochet Striped Blanket because that is exactly what it is.  You can create this gorgeous blanket with just one stitch, the double crochet.  Then, to add a little flair, she added some cute fringes to top it off.  I have included a quick tutorial if you aren't quite sure how to add those fringes.

    1. I am so sorry that you are having that problem. I just checked everything on my site and it appears to be working fine. Please let me know if you continue to have this issue and I will email you the PDF of the pattern.

      1. I have tried repeatedly to download this pattern, and can't get it. Everything I try takes me to Dropbox. I would love to have the pattern.

        1. Sorry you are having an issue. When you click on the link, it should take you to Dropbox. When it does, can you see the full pattern? If so, click the download button. Mine is located in the upper right-hand corner. Then you should get the options for Direct Download or Save To My Dropbox. Select Direct Download. This will automatically download the printable pattern onto your computer and you will be able to print it. Please let me know if this doesn't work. If needed, I can definitely email you the pattern!

    1. I also love this pattern and have made it many times! Each time, I buy one regular-sized skein of each color and always have a bit left over.

  2. Hi - just wanted to send a message. A good friend of mines mother passed away from breast cancer. She started a crochet charity, with 9X9 in squares sent in and She crochets them together and gives them to patients going through chemo! Welcoming squares from anywhere in the world http://www.projectchemocrochet.com

    1. What an awesome idea! I love it! My mother-in-law loves crocheting! I can't wait to tell her about this charity.

    1. I feel so bad that I can't figure this one out. Every time I try to open and download, it works perfectly. I have also had others try it to be sure. The only thing that may be throwing you off is when you are asked to sign into DropBox or create an account. Neither of these are necessary. Just click the option at the bottom that says, "No thanks! Continue to download."

      Please let me know if this doesn't work or you need further clarification.

    1. Great question! I am currently working on a course for beginning crocheters! Please be sure to subscribe to my email list, and you will be one of the first to hear about it when it is open!

  3. How many would you chain for a throw size blanket? Needing to measure around 50"x65" when finished?

    1. The original pattern is about 26" wide, so I would double the amount chained which would bring it to 202 chains. I hope this helps!
