Thanks for visiting my page! Here is a written tutorial with photos on how to make my Wild Earthshine Afghan!

First, with any project you’ll need a crochet hook and yarn. Any yarn or hook will do for learning this blanket.

For this tutorial you’ll need to know how to make Chains (CH)! How to make the Slip Stitch (SL ST), tutorial here! How to make the Double Crochet Stitch (DC), tutorial here!

To start make chains in the multiple of 3 + 1

I made 157 chain for my example blanket

Row 1: 1 DC into the 4th CH from your hook

1 DC into the next CH

*Make 1 CH, Skip 1 CH

Make 1 DC into each of the next 3 CHs

Repeat the steps above from * for the rest of this row

Row 2: Make 3 CHs

Skip 1 ST, make 1 DC into the next ST

Make 1 CH, Skip 1 ST

Make 1 DC into the next CH 1 space, then 1 DC into each of the next 2 STs

From this point on the pattern will be similar. You'll have 3 DC + 1 DC space. Then you'll move that CH space by 1 spot to make this zig zag pattern. I have shown above how my zig zag was made. 4 going left or right. The the 4th CH space counting as the 1st CH space of the next zig zag. It's an open interpretation pattern, because you can make you zig zags as big as you want. Depending on what you want.

I made 4 zigs one way then switched my zags to the other way.
