There have been several requests since 2021 to have this crochet pocket blanket without the pocket, as the stitching resembles wicker. This is the Crochet Wicker Stitch Blanket.
To change the pattern, it required calibration and reimagination to calculate the stitch multiples and to execute the design. Sometimes, omitting details is not enough, as was the case here. A new design had to be created.

I wish you had a video of this blanket. Could you please add one.
