15. Industrial Tweed Herringbone Throw
What This Idea Means
A sophisticated, masculine blanket featuring the classic herringbone stitch worked in a rich tweed yarn that mimics high-end tailored suit fabric.
How to Make It
Work with a woolen tweed yarn containing subtle flecks of charcoal, oatmeal, and rust. Use the extended herringbone double crochet stitch, which crosses loops diagonally across rows to create a dense, architectural zigzag pattern with incredible structural elegance.
Tips and Variations
- The herringbone stitch creates a firm fabric; use a hook one size larger than recommended to maintain drape.
- Great for dens, home offices, or modern masculine living spaces.
- Finish with neat, short fringe or leave edges clean and unadorned.
