Crochet Bacon Blanket Pattern
In the history of the world, few foods have come close to ranking higher in preference than bacon - I mean, have you ever been to a breakfast buffet where all the bacon is gone? That's how you know it's good stuff. And even when I tried going vegetarian, I just couldn't resist finding ways to make bacon out of tofu. But guess what? My love for bacon doesn't stop there. I recently designed a Bacon Blanket Crochet Pattern and I'm so excited to share it with you!
Crochet Bacon Blanket
Imagine snuggling up in a bacon-patterned blanket that won't leave you smelling like fried meat or feeling oily and salty. It sounds amazing, right? I love bacon, but I don't necessarily want to wrap myself in it. So, I came up with a solution - a crochet pattern for a Bacon Blanket!
But, let me warn you, if you're trying to cut back on bacon, this blanket might make it harder. If, like me, you have an undying love for bacon, keep reading to learn how to make your very own bacon blanket.
The pattern I designed uses a ripple stitch, creating waves that resemble crispy, savory bacon. It's perfect for beginners who want to practice their crochet skills. You can adjust the size of the blanket by starting with more chains, which should be a multiple of 16 stitches, plus 2 for the turning chain.
