The Crochet Herringbone Blanket pattern is an easy repeat once the foundation of the stitching is solidified.
The pattern has the herringbone section completed first and then the Single Crochet bands are crocheted to both ends of the blanket afterwards.
Finally, the trim of the entire blanket and fringe is applied. Of course, if fringe isn't your thing, you don't have to add it.
Free tutorial is below.

This pattern has THE GRID NAME, which I think you are looking for to fix
Mikey says
I totally am. Thanks so much. Updated.
Brinn says
This was so helpful!! Do you remember what colour you used? I love it ❤️
Mikey says
It's like a seafoam blue but I don't recall the name. I'm sorry.

Hey there Crochet Mentor!
Thank you for another fabulously explained video tutorial! You have a way of explaining the stitches and the “why” of where the hook goes, that NOBODY else comes close to! As a noob to crochet, that has never had the opportunity to ask, “now where?” and “why there?” because I’ve taught myself during a pandemic and know zero people who crochet, you have officially become the gold standard for video tutorials in my book. If I see a nice stitch in a picture, I stalk your Pinterest page to try and find one of YOUR videos to explain it properly! Don’t let anyone tell you “you talk too much”; they are all liars! Send them to me and I’ll have my finger wagging so fast….
Big hugs and thanks AGAIN!

Heya Kerri. Firstly, thanks for your thoughtful response. I am teaching the way my mom taught me. It's not the issue to stick the hook into a position but it's best to know why so you can use that knowledge to further yourself. I firmly believe the crocheters aren't meant to follow 100% but to understand the logic of the concept so they can remember it easier.
I try not to talk so much and it's difficult to maintain a speed for everyone. That's the hardest thing about being in the public like this.
Enjoy and happy hook'n to you.
Stephanie Goertz says
I love this tutorial! You did such a fantastic job explaining this beautiful stitch. I have some Bernat Blanket yarn that I want to use. I have been looking and I don't see where it is listed how many skeins this will take if done with the 110 starting stitches and done to the correct length. I hate to wing it and hope that I have enough, but that is what I am going to do.
Mikey says
Checking the pattern now for you. Stand by.

Mikey- your tutorials brought so much joy & peace into my life several years ago. I no longer watch tv- but listen, as I’m always counting my stitches ? Crocheting is meditation with a tangible benefit you can gift to anyone! Thank you so much! You’ll never understand how much you have impacted my life & those around me. ❤️ Can hardly wait to get busy on this gorgeous pattern!
Mikey says
It's brought me stability too. It's saved me more often than I could ever have imagined. I can totally relate. All the very best to you on this lovely day. Michael.
Sharon Pierce says
I love this stitch. I have made a sweater and a shawl after I learned this stitch.
Camille says
Is using different color of yarn possible with this pattern or will it be ugly??
Mikey says
Up to you. Colour is personal and up to your own personal choices. I don't like yellow but others love it. Do what you think you would love the most.
Allison Ward says
Hi! I was glancing at this pattern and a few others here on your channel. I am wondering if you have a pattern that's fit for a king size bed? Thanks in advance!
Mikey says
Not usually but that's because many afghans have a multiple repeat where you can adjust the sizing, so they make it a throw size knowing we can adjust it. The yarn quantities won't be known. For myself, I don't have a king-size here at home, I just know dimensions. You would just need to figure out the multiples for the pattern and make the starting chain big enough for the king-size and also in the same multiple to keep the stitches insyc.
Faith says
the CROCHET CROWD IS AN EVERYDAY PART OF MY LIFE AND LEARNING. i AM WATCHING THIS PATTER DONE WITH 4PLY YARN AND Mikey is WONDERFUL. THANK YOU.
Mikey says
You're most welcome. Enjoy your evening.
Faith says
thank you for ALL you have done for so many people. What you do is "love them". Have a great and BLESSED Holiday.
Mikey says
Thank you Faith and the very best to you and your family as well. 🙂 I'm working throughout, so I am not on holiday this year. 😀
Cindy Stewart says
Michael, is there a way you can change that neon green print to darker non neon color please! I'm older & have 2 eye blinding diseases so those neon & light colors are almost invisible to me! I'd like to be included in being able to read & navigate your blog! Thank you
Mikey says
I can yes... Let me work on that now.
Cindy Stewart says
Thank you so very much Mikey! I truly appreciate it! <3 🙂
Lulu says
Beautiful pattern! But is there a way to see what yarn is needed without downloading the pattern or viewing the tutorial first?
Mikey says
Let them think on that. I am trying not to rewrite the pattern on the blog because if the pattern changes, then my article is wrong which compiles into a ton of complaints for inaccuracy. Leave it with me. I have to think about that as the repercussions for any misinforming come at me fast and furious each day. That was requested on YouTube as well for people to know more without having to click the links of the details we have. I am providing more details on YouTube but of course, everything is subject to change without warning.
Lulu says
Thanks for replying, Mikey! Don't know if it would be an issue, but I think if just the yarn weight is provided that would really help.
Lisa says

Mikey says
