I have been searching for months for the perfect plaid crochet pattern, but never found anything that suited my tastes. Everything I found was typically the gingham or buffalo plaid style, but I wanted a blanket that looked more like a traditional woven plaid. Thus, I worked out this pattern that is incredibly easy to make.

For this project you will need 3 colours of yarn. I used Bernat Softee Chunky yarn which is super bulky (6) and recommends an 8mm crochet hook. I used the colours "Natural", "Grey Heather", and "True Grey". Because I was crocheting over my second colour of yarn (sometimes called "tapestry crochet"), I used a 10mm crochet hook. I used two 394m balls of “Natural” and “True Grey” and four 394m balls of “Grey Heather”. Please note that using two strands of super bulky makes a very thick blanket (perfect for cold Canadian winters), but if you are looking for something that transitions between seasons, I would recommend a lighter weight of yarn.

Materials required for this project: 

  • 3 colours of Bernat Softee Chunky yarn required (A, B, C)

    • Colour A – Natural (2 balls - 788 m)

    • Colour B – Grey Heather (4 balls - 1576 m)

    • Colour C – True Grey  (2 balls - 788m)

  • Scissors

  • Tapestry needle

  • Crochet hook (10 mm and 8 mm)

Finished dimensions:

  • 41 x 72” (plus fringe, with bulky yarn)

Stitches used in this pattern: 

  • Single Crochet (SC)

Would be helpful if you gave blanket measurements and hook sizes done with non-chunky yarn. Also include measurements in Canadian and United States. Thanks.

Beautiful pattern

Took a minute to get used to the directions. After that, it was full steam ahead. I love this pattern.

What do you want?

It looks OK. I’d need more from this cryptic survey just exactly on what basis these ratings are made. Do you mean ease of downloading; simplicity or completeness of directions; understandable pattern; process for receiving? What? I haven’t started it yet so I don’t know.

Brilliant, easy pattern

I love plaid, and this pattern is beautiful. I've made something buffalo plaid, so I've done tapestry before (so easy) and I like the extra warmth that provides. Clearly written pattern, too.

Best Plaid Pattern I could find

I've been scouring the internet for a plaid crochet pattern that I really liked and this is it. This is also my first venture into tapestry stitching and it's taken some getting used to but it's soooooo much easier than tying off each color change. Callista's youtube videos were also a big help. I'm a visual learner. I was using the free pattern (with ads) but thought the pattern was so well done that I wanted to buy the pdf to support her. Well done!
