How to Make a Masculine Crochet Blanket with Unused Dark Yarn

Finding a suitable pattern for a man's blanket can be a challenge. Fortunately, Allison Russell has a great idea that will help you create a masculine crochet blanket using dark-colored yarn.

Firstly, take a look at your yarn stash or visit a thrift shop to get some darker shades. It is important to choose colors that are not too bright or feminine. Some great options include shades of brown, gray, navy blue, and forest green.

Next, Allison recommends using a simple un-fussy texture stitch for the blanket. This stitch is double crochet in the US, or a similar stitch in other countries.

The beauty of this pattern is that there is no stitch counting involved, making it easy to work on while watching TV or having a conversation.

To get started, chain a multiple of 3 stitches plus 2, and then double crochet in the third stitch from the hook. Skip two stitches and double crochet in the next stitch, and repeat this pattern until the end of the row.

Turn your work and start the next row by chaining two stitches and double crocheting in the first stitch. Repeat this pattern until the desired length of the blanket is reached.

The end result will be a cozy and masculine crochet blanket that any man would appreciate. This project allows you to take a break from making blankets for babies and women and create something special for the men in your life.

Making a crochet blanket for a man can be a unique and personalized gift idea. With Allison's simple un-fussy texture stitch and some darker-colored yarn, you can create a blanket that has a masculine and stylish look.
