The Raspberry Lattice Blanket Crochet Pattern

This striped crochet blanket was so fun for me to make. I loved everything about the process – from picking the yarn colors to adding the finishing touches and everything between.

For this project, I challenged myself to think outside my usual color schemes (you’ll find that many of my projects feature some shade of the color blue). I went with shades of pink – ranging from coral to rose – paired with white. I couldn’t be happier with the results.

This blanket makes me smile every time I look at it.

About the Stitches

I wanted to use a combination of stitches for this blanket. After swatching several options, I decided to go with simple double crochet, v-stitch, and granny stitches. The way these came together created a blanket with gorgeous texture.

For the border, I wanted something a little more elaborate. I started off with 4 rounds of single crochet and framed it all with a shell-stitch border. If you’ve been around for a while, you know I typically stick with very simple borders. Somehow I just knew this blanket needed a little something more.

Even though these stitches might look intimidating, this blanket is beginner-friendly! If you can double crochet and chain, you can make this blanket!

The video tutorial will walk you through the stitches, changing colors, and the border!

About the Yarn

I discovered a new yarn recently and knew I wanted to use it for this project. I used Yarnsmith’s Pebble Haze Aran – it’s available from the Wool Warehouse website. I love the way this yarn works up, and it feels amazing, too!

This tubular yarn, which comes in 35 beautiful shades, is made with a soft, cotton-acrylic blend. I selected the colors Marble, Petalite, Coral, and Pink Smithsonite.

This post isn’t sponsored – I don’t even have an affiliate link to share – I just truly enjoy working with this yarn!

Yarn Substitutions

If you’re not in the mood to weave ends on your next project, don’t worry! This blanket looks every bit as beautiful worked in just one color (see my current project pictured below). You could also opt to work with a variegated yarn.

If you want to use a different yarn weight, this pattern will still work out just fine. Simply be sure to adjust the hook size.

As a rule of thumb, I recommend going up at least one hook size from what’s recommended on the package. But, just to be sure you like the texture, it’s always a good idea to work up a swatch.

Blanket Instructions

Using Marble, Chain 84.

Row 1: dc in the second chain and in each ch across. Ch 1, turn. (You should have 83 dc at the end of this row.)

Rows 2-4: dc in the first st and in each st across. Ch 1, turn. (You should have 83 dc at the end of this row.)

You should now have 4 double crochet rows. 

Row 5: dc in the first st, skip the next st. V-stitch in the next st. *skip the next 2 stitches, v-stitch in the next st* across until 2 stitches remain. Skip the next to the last st. dc in the last st. Ch 1, turn. (You should have 27 v-stitches and a dc on each end.)

Row 6: dc in the first st, v-stitch in each ch 1 space across. Dc in the last st. Ch 1, turn. (You should have 27 v-stitches and a dc on each end.)

You should now have 2 v-stitch rows.

Row 7: dc in the first st. Work 3 dc in each ch 1 space across. Dc in the last st. Ch 1, turn. (You should have 83 dc at the end of this row.)

You should now have 1 granny stitch row.

Rows 8-10: dc in the first st and in each st across. Ch 1, turn. (You should have 83 dc at the end of this row.)

You should now have 3 double crochet rows. 

Repeat Rows 5-10 for a total of 58 rows. After Row 58, proceed to the border pattern without cutting yarn.

You’ll be alternating between the various stitches, as well as changing colors in this blanket. Your color changes and your stitch changes won’t necessarily line up. You might change colors on the second v-stitch row or in the middle of your dc rows. This adds to the fun of the pattern!

How to Change Colors

On the last stitch of the row, don’t pull your working yarn through the last two loops to complete the stitch. Instead of pulling the yarn you’ve been working with through those final two loops, place the new yarn on your hook and pull it through the last two loops. Be sure to leave a long tail on both colors so you can weave your ends later.

Border Pattern

The border instructions begin around the 15 minute mark in the video tutorial.

Round 1: single crochet evenly around the entire blanket, working 3 sc into each corner. Sl st to the top of the first st to join. 

Rounds 2 – 4: ch 1. Single crochet evenly around the entire blanket, working 3 sc into each corner. Sl st to the top of the first st to join. Cut yarn and weave ends. 

Join Pink Smithsonite in any corner.

Round 5:  Ch 1. Work 3 dc into the corner. *Skip one st, sc into the next st. Skip one st, 5 dc into the next st* around. You don’t have to worry about doing anything specific in the corner stitches. When you get back to the first corner, work two additional dc into the first corner st. Sl st to the first dc to join. 

Adjusting the Size of the Blanket

Adjusting the size of this blanket is not difficult! In order for the pattern to work, your starting chain needs to be in a multiple of 3. 

The total number of rows for this pattern needs to be a multiple of 6 + 4. 

For example: 

6 x 9 = 54 so 54 + 4 = 58

6 x 10 = 60 so 60 + 4 = 64

The chart below includes 10 common sizes. Stripe patterns for each size are given.
