If you’re new to Tunisian crochet, then you’re in the right place! Introducing the Wrapped in Stripes Blanket - a beginner Tunisian striped blanket.

This blanket uses the Tunisian Simple Stitch - the most basic Tunisian stitch. This stitch is the equivalent of a single crochet in traditional crochet. The Tunisian Simple Stitch makes a uniform texture with vertical bars on the front, and creates a knitted purl look on the back.

The beauty of this blanket comes from it’s simplicity. So no matter what colours you choose, your blanket is going to look amazing because the simple stitch pattern lets the yarn shine.

The free pattern for the Small Throw Size (50” x 65”) can be found HERE!
