What's better than making my Pizza Blanket Crochet Pattern and snuggling under it while eating actual pizza? Experience pizza-ception and make the crochet pizza blanket with the help of my tutorial.
inc = Increase (because there is no single crochet in this pattern increase will only refer to a double crochet increase)
Notes
Use double-stranded worsted weight yarn (yellow and white) for a marble cheese effect or blanket yarn with a larger hook. Begin with 10 double crochet stitches, adaptable to 12 for flat circles based on preference. The finished throw blanket measures 52” by 52”. Consider blanket yarn for a plush appearance or add various toppings for a unique pizza design.
