C2C Wattle Stitch Blanket Pattern

Sharing is caring!

The Crochet Wattle Stitch is a great stitch for a textured crochet blanket. When worked corner to corner, especially with a color-changing yarn, it makes an eye-catching blanket.

I’ve been wanting to give this stitch a try, and since I love trying out stitches corner to corner in blankets, it made sense to keep up that trend with this blanket pattern using the wattle stitch.

Please note that this post may contain affiliate links. You can read my full affiliate disclosure at the bottom of the page.

I made this blanket using Red Heart Super Saver Ombre Yarn, which is a great yarn to use when you are wanting to help keep things budget friendly but have something that has a pop of color that will last through washing. While this yarn is scratchy right off the skein, once it is washed and dried it actually feels soft and smooth.

Notes:

• This crochet pattern is written in US terms.
• Finished size: 44″ long x 44″ wide.
• It is highly recommended to use stitch markers in the ch spaces at the start of each row for this pattern, especially when decreasing on the 2nd half of the blanket.
• This pattern is worked corner to corner, back and forth in rows, and is worked in one piece with an easy 3-round border.
• If you would like to change the width of the blanket you can adjust the number of times you repeat row 4.

Materials:

• 1620 yards of medium 4-weight yarn (changing the size of the blanket will change the amount of yarn needed)
• Yarn used: Red Heart Super Saver Ombre (951 g) in Deep Teal
• 6.00 mm crochet hook
• Yarn needle to weave in ends.
• Stitch markers
• Scissors

Crochet Abbreviations Used (US Terms):

• st/sts – stitch/stitches
• sl st – slip stitch
• ch – chain
• sc – single crochet
• dc – double crochet
• sc2tog – single crochet two together
• x – times (ex 2x = two times)

Special Stitch Instructions:

sc2tog – insert hook into next stitch, yarn over and pull up a loop, insert hook into the following stitch, yarn over and pull a loop, yarn over again, and pull through all 3 loops on your hook.
