This pattern uses a simple combination of single and double crochet stitches, yet creates a beautifully textured fabric that looks far more intricate than it is.

The Suzette stitch is known for its dense, squishy texture, making it ideal for warm throws, baby blankets, or lapghans.

It’s easy to memorize, highly relaxing, and perfect for binge-watching your favorite series while you crochet.

📏 Gauge and Notes

  • Gauge: 10 stitches = 8″ (20.3 cm); 9 rows = 8″ (20.3 cm)

  • As long as you’re close to the gauge, your blanket should turn out beautifully.

  • This stitch doesn’t allow for much variation in hook size, so it’s important to pay attention to tension, especially at the beginning of each single crochet. Inconsistent tension can result in a loose or uneven texture.
