Thanks for visiting my page! Here is a written tutorial with photos on how to make my Instant Crush Afghan!
First, with any project you'll need a crochet hook and yarn. Any yarn or hook will do for learning this blanket pattern
For this tutorial you'll need to know how to make Chains (CH), I have a tutorial here! How to make the Double Crochet Stitch (DC), tutorial here! How to make the Triple Crochet Stitch (TR), tutorial here! And be familiar with the Spiked Granny Chevron Stitch, tutorial here!

Starting from the beginning, make chains in the multiple of 18. I made 162 chains for my example blanket
Row 1: Make 3 DC into the 5th CH from your hook
Skip 2 CHs, make 3 DC into the next CH
*Peak/Increase: Skip 2 CHs, make (3 DC, CH 2, 3 DC) all into the next CH
Side: (Skip 2 CHs, make 3 DC into the next CH) X 2
Valley/Decrease: Skip 5 CHs
Side: (Skip 2 CHs, make 3 DC into the next CH) X 2
Repeat the steps above from * for the rest of this row
Row 2: Make 4 CHs
Skip 3 STs, make 1 DC into the space between STs
Make 1 TR into the CH/ST below the same space you were working into
Make 1 DC into the same space you were working into
So total in this space: 1 DC, 1 TR into CH/ST below, 1 DC
*Valley/Decrease: Skip 2 sets of 3 DC
Side: Make (1 DC, 1 TR into CH/ST below, 1 DC) into the next space between sets of 3 DC X 2
Peak/Increase: Skip 3 STs, Make (3 DC, CH 2, 3 DC) into that next CH space
Side: Make (1 DC, 1 TR into CH/ST below, 1 DC) into the next space between sets of 3 DC X 2
Repeat the steps above from * until you only have 3 STs left
Make 1 CH
Skip to the last ST in this row, make 1 DC into that last ST to complete this row
You would now repeat Row 2 for however long you want your project
This is what my Instant Crush Afghan should look like when completed!
