Sunbeam Textured Blanket

The Sunbeam Textured Blanket is built from three stitch sections: bean stitch, honeycomb (spike) stitch and brick stitch.

This is a modern textured crochet blanket worked back and forth in rows. It’s a lovely project if you want to move beyond plain squares and stripes and learn new techniques as you go.

2. How to work spike single crochet (ssc) for the honeycomb texture
3. How to create the brick stitch effect with colour changes every two rows
4. How to finish with a neat hdc border
