Crochet a Waffle Stitch Blanket
Waffle Stitch Pattern:
The waffle stitch is a textured crochet pattern that resembles a waffle’s grid-like surface. It’s achieved using a combination of double crochet (dc) stitches and front post double crochet (fpdc) stitches. This creates raised squares and deep ridges, forming the characteristic grid.

Basic Instructions
Foundation Chain: Start with a chain in multiples of 3, plus 2 for turning.
Row 1: Double crochet (dc) in the third chain from the hook and in each chain across.
Chain 2, turn.
Row 2: Start the pattern: Alternate between 1 double crochet (dc) and 1 front post double crochet (fpdc) across the row.
Chain 2, turn.
Row 3:Work 1 fpdc into each fpdc from the previous row.
Work 1 dc into each dc from the previous row.
Chain 2, turn.
Repeat Rows 2 and 3 for the desired length.
Tips for Success:
Ensure your tension is consistent for a neat and even grid effect.
Choose a soft, chunky yarn to enhance the texture and make the waffle pattern pop.
Use a crochet hook size appropriate for your chosen yarn.
