This beautiful throw blanket is a passion project, something I put my whole heart into. It's soft and cozy, has a wonderful texture, and almost feels like a weighted blanket. It has a perfect drape from the extended single crochet and chain stitch pattern. The Hue + Me yarn is a great choice because it's a wool blend but it's also machine washable and dryable. If your home has children (like mine does!) then you will appreciate this attribute.

Skill level: Intermediate/Advanced Beginner

Gauge: Use instructions from pattern, starting with a ch 14 and stop at row 9. You should have 7 esc plus a ch 2 in each row of a 5.25" x 5.25" swatch.
