The Double Cross Blanket

Hello my crochet besties!

If you’re looking for a nice simple tutorial of the jasmine stitch then you’ve come to the right place! Below you will find a chart on how many to chain and how many rows to complete for a jasmine blanket. I’ll also share with you my chart on how much yarn you need for each size blanket.

You will need:

  • 5mm hook/H-8
  • Aran/medium worsted weight /10 ply in as many colours as you like.
  • Sharp yarn needle
  • Scissors

The amount of yarn you will need will vary for the size you make.

The Gauge swatch is 4 inches by 4 inches = 6 puffs by 5 rows.

If you’re not sure on the stitch abbreviations I have a full printable PDF which you can grab here.

If you would prefer the video tutorial I have that too and you can find it here. I also have the left handed tutorial which you can find here.

Start by making a slip knot and chain the amount stated on the chart for your sized blanket.

R1: Put 1 dc into the 4th ch from the hook. 1 dc into each st across. Ch 2 and turn.

R2:  1 dc in each st across. Ch 2 and turn.

R3: *Sk 2 sts, 1 dcbs, 1 dc into the 2nd sk st, 1 dcbs in the 1st sk st, 1 dc in each of the next 3 sts* Repeat to the last 4 sts.Sk 2 sts, 1 dcbs, 1 dc into the 2nd sk st, 1 dcbs in the 1st sk st. 1 dc into the top of the chain 2. Ch 2 and turn.

R4: 1 dc in each st across.

R5: *1 dc in each of the next 3 sts, sk 2 sts, 1 dcbs, 1 dc into the 2nd sk st, 1 dcbs in the 1st sk st* Repeat to the last 4 sts. 1 dc in each of the last 4 sts. Ch 2 and turn.

Repeat rows 2 to 5 until you reach the size you require.

Happy crocheting!
