When choosing cord length, keep in mind that you want the total length of your hook AND cord should be at least 1/3 the length of your blanket width. Depending on the size blanket you make, you’ll need a crochet hook with a cord, or cable on it. This pattern uses a size US I/9 5.5 mm Tunisian crochet hook. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option, this yarn from WeCrochet is a gorgeous DK weight superwash merino that would work perfectly for this pattern! Need Help Picking Out a Hook? In the pattern, you’ll find all the yardage information for each size to know exactly how much yarn you’ll need for the main color and border. I love this fun element to the design, but you could also use the main color for your border as well. You’ll notice this pattern has a contrasting color border. These colors were so much fun to work with and I love how well the speckles and bright colors play together in this blanket!
I used a DK weight yarn from Hickory Lane Fiber Co.‘s Queen Collection and paired Break Free (blue) for the main color with Galileo (pink) for the border color. Fun pops of color in the yarn really shine in this crochet stitch. Using a hand dyed yarn with some variegation or speckles really gives this design something special. Get the pattern on Etsy or Ravelry & don’t forget to pin this post for later! Pair this meditative project with your favorite DK weight yarn! This pattern works up beautifully in solid colors, but a speckled or variegated yarn is where you’ll really see the beautiful Tunisian texture shine.
