Free High Tide Crochet Blanket Pattern

Instructions and photo pattern dont match

I agree the pattern seems off, but not the foundation. It seems the instructions give you essential a foundation, a turn with DC, then a set of 2 repeating instructions with 3 turns in it. These leave a width of post alternating on the right and wrong side. The photo pattern depicts no hdc row which would leave just 2 repeating rows which would fix this but its very confusing that there are essentially two sets of instructions for the repeating rows.

• Have you tried a small sample? We recommend trying a sample so you can see how the pattern develops. It is correct as written. To work a small sample, a multiple of 17 + 20 chains is required. If you are substituting the yarn for another, the visual effect may not necessarily match the sample photo due to changes in yarn weight and texture.

Something is off with the pattern

I crochet a lot of intermediate and advanced patterns, and something is off with this pattern. My sister and I both tried to get the rows to line up multiple times (pulling rows out, reworking) and no matter what the beginning row seemed to cause a shift, or not have the correct number of starting stitches. It may be written correctly, but maybe it lacks sufficient detail to explain what needs to be done? Either way I gave up (and my sister who crochets and knits) and went with a different pattern. Luckily, seeing the other reviews made me realize we weren't going insane or suddenly became really bad at counting stitches.

• We’re sorry to hear you gave up. We have a fantastic team with ample experience waiting to help with our patterns. This pattern has a 17-stitch repeat. You’ll begin with a partial repeat, work five full repeats, and end with another partial repeat. If it helps to have a visual of how the blanket begins, we do have a video tutorial available for this pattern. https://youtu.be/vMkrHw6Akxo?si=J1prH-c2gbN56Uke We hope you give it another try. It does work out nicely.

Love it but the pattern seems off

I love the yarn and the pattern. However, the 105 ch for the foundation with an 8mm hook didn't come close to 51". I always check my gauge before starting.

Stunning blanket!

This is my showpiece at all my craft fairs. It is stunning!

Pattern error?

Can anyone get the foundation row to work out correctly? I have tried several times and it doesn't work out as written? Maybe it's just me......or is there an error in this pattern? Love the yarn, the pattern is the challenge.

• We are happy to help you get started with your High Tide Crochet Blanket. You will begin with a chain of 105. Work 1 dc in the 4th chain from hook. (101 chains left) Work 2 dc in each of next 2 dc. (99 chains left) You will now work 5 complete repeats: *(Skip next ch. 1 dc in next ch) 5 times. Skip next ch. 2 dc in each of next 6 ch. (Each repeat uses 17 chains…14 chains left) Lastly, you will work the last repeat, but it is not a full repeat. Notice that the instructions say to end the last repeat by working 2 dc in each of the next 3 chains: *(Skip next ch. 1 dc in next ch) 5 times. Skip next ch. 2 dc in each of next 3 ch. (This uses the last 14 chains - no chains remaining) We hope you’re now well on your way. Enjoy your project!

If I want to make it bigger what would be the added stitch count
