Afghans and Blankets
"Chunky Blanket Yarns are the absolute best to make soft and snuggly Blankets. I absolutely love the soft texture of these Blanket Yarns. Blankets that use bulkier yarn are always a favorite of crocheters. Chunky crochet blanket patterns are great because they work up fast. Another thing about crocheted Chunky Yarn Blankets that makes them a favorite is that they are usually made of simple stitches."

Super Chunky Striped Shay Afghan Crochet pattern
Afghans and Blankets
The Super Chunky Striped Shay Afghan is an easy crochet afghan pattern worked in simple single crochet stitches and fun color block stripes. 11 sizes included, and super chunky yarn means it’ll work up fairly quickly. You'll need some super bulky yarn. I used Bernat Blanket Yarn in Smokey Green and Dark Gray, but you could also try holding 2-3 strands of worsted weight yarn together with the same crochet hook size. The newborn size blanket took me just under 4 hours to work up.
Modern Double Crochet V-Stitch Chunky Blanket
Afghans and Blankets
This modern double crochet v-stitch chunky blanket is a wedding gift. I have had this Caron One Pound yarn in my stash for a while now. Thought it was time to get something made with it. The blanket had to be large enough to cover a queen sized bed. As you can see from the photo, it is large enough. Not too large though so that one or two people can snuggle under it. Additionally, this had to be warm enough to be the go-to blanket on our cold winter nights. Using two strands of yarn makes this a fun and chunky blanket. It also makes for a very warm blanket. I will miss having this cover me up while crocheting when it is below zero here this week. Brrrr. The double crochet stitch is a quick stitch to master and once the pattern is started, there is really little need to count. For me, this makes for a great crochet pattern to work on while watching movies. I think this is a great beginner stitch once you have mastered the double crochet stitch. It is always easy to see where you need to insert your hook in the previous row.
