A Different Corner to Corner Moss Stitch Crochet Blanket
This unique C2C Moss stitch crochet blanket uses the Spiked Bean stitch which is worked 2 rows below. I love the Bean stitch more than the Puff, since it creates a rounder stitch.
The Bean stitch rows are separated with 3 rows of Moss stitch, while each time, the Bean are shifted so they will be alternating.
Since this moss stitch blanket is made using the C2C method, it can be worked to any size you want, just keep increasing until you reach the desired length!

What yarn to use for this C2C moss blanket?
The beautiful thing about working a crochet blanket from corner to corner is that you don’t have to work a swatch to calculate the width of the starting chains.
This gives you the freedom to use different weights and types of yarn for the same pattern. I used YarnArt – Jeans Plus which Worsted (#4) weight yarn consists of 55% cotton and 45% acrylic, but you can also use a DK or Bulky yarn for this blanket pattern, with a suitable hook.

How to crochet the Bean stitch in sc 2 rows below (Spiked Bean)
Insert your hook into the unworked single crochet 2 rows below – under the ch-1 sp (pic 1), yo and pull up a loop – bring your hook to the height of the row (pic 2). (Yo and insert hook into same st, yo and pull up a loop) x 2 times (pics 3&4). Yo and pull yarn through all 6 loops on hook (pic 5).
Notes
- To make it easier to find the ch3 / ch2 spaces at the end of the row, place a stitch marker when you ch3/ch2 at the beginning of each row.
- Every 3 rows, the Beans are shifted.
- The stitch count is shown only at the beginning of the increase section to help you get the hang of the pattern.
- The blanket can be made both as a square and as a rectangle.
- The border is optional, I chose not to add a border, because the pattern forms straight edges and I liked the way it looked.
