Tranquility Blanket Crochet Along 2024
This strip is my contribution to the blanket. I chose this stitch combination for a fun and easy textured strip.
The blanket is made out of 12 different strip patterns that are worked on top of each other (no joining or sewing here!). A final border is then worked around the blanket.
- Each section’s instructions is accompanied by step-by-step photo tutorials. Some also have charts and videos for the different stitches featured.
My contribution is a super easy textured strip.

How to work this Blanket
This blanket pattern was designed as one piece with all designers working together to create one blanket that requires absolutely no seaming.
This means that each part of the blanket is crocheted right on top of the previous part, just like if you were crocheting a βnormalβ lanket.
Between each part are two transition rows, which break up the parts so they can all shine with gorgeous texture. You will work these two transition rows after each part of the blanket except Part
After Part 12, we will place a border and these transition rows will not be needed.
You Decide
Decide which size of blanket youβd prefer to make prior to starting this pattern.
For the Lapghan, you will:
β Begin Part 1 with the indicated starting chain requirement for Lapghan.
β Choose 10 of the 12 Parts to include in your blanket.
β Crochet the 10 chosen Parts in order with Transition Rows between each Part as instructed.
β Once all 10 Parts are complete, continue to the border instructions.
For the Throw, you will:
β Begin Part 1 with the indicated starting chain requirement for Throw.
β Crochet all 12 Parts in order with Transition Rows between each Part as instructed.
β Once all 12 Parts are complete, continue to the border instructions.
Once the border is complete, you can cut yarn and weave ends.
