Crochet Skull Blanket Pattern Finished Measurements

My crocheted blanket measures 40 inches by 50 inches.

Gauge

11 squares (ch 2 + 3 dc) = 6 inches

Crochet Terms

  • dc = double crochet
  • sc = single crochet
  • hdc = half double crochet
  • ch/chs = chain/chains

C2C Crochet Technique

  • The pattern is made using the c2c technique of making “squares” in diagonal rows starting in the bottom right corner and ending in the top left corner.
  • Each square is made of a chain 2 + 3 double crochet.
  • Chain 5 to start a new row and chain 2 to start a new square.
  • You can follow the picture graph or the written pattern.
  • The written pattern tells you how many squares to make of each color and in what order.

Video Tutorial

I have a corner to corner (c2c) video tutorial on my YouTube channel to help you get started if you are new to this crochet method.
