Assembly / Finishing
Fasten off, leaving a long tail for weaving. Use a yarn needle to weave in all loose ends securely. Gently block your blanket if desired, though acrylic yarn typically doesn't require blocking.
Tips
- To keep your edges straight, always make sure to work into the very last stitch of the row. Using a stitch marker in the first and last stitch of the row can be helpful.
- Practice maintaining an even tension throughout your work for a consistent fabric.
- Crochet a gauge swatch to ensure your finished blanket will be the size you desire. This pattern is math-verified, but your personal gauge will affect the final dimensions.
