1. One of the things you must do before you start to crochet a blanket is to determine the size of the blanket. There are different sizes of blanket people usually go for, they include; 36x42 inches, 36x36 inches, 48x60 inches, 50x70 inches, etc.
2. Take your time to examine your crocheting skills and choose a type of yarn that will fit perfectly for the blanket you are about to make. Choosing a yarn with a light color, smooth texture is usually advised.
3. Depending on your crocheting skills, you should know the right crotchet hooks, as well as the perfect hook size for this task. However, if you have not done so much on this before, then now is the time to choose a perfect hook size that matches your skills and the blanket you are about to make.
4. While the first three steps are also important, another important step to take is to determine and choose a stitch. Choosing a very good stitch has a lot to do with the composition of your blanket.
