Many people have a crocheted blanket that was a gift from a special person. Since these comfortable throws get a lot of wear, they sometimes get holes in them. If that happens to your favorite crocheted blanket, don’t give up. You or someone who crochets may be able to repair the blanket. Step 1 Determine what kind of crochet stitch forms the blanket. If you know how to crochet, you probably can easily determine if it’s a common stitch. If it’s not common, you may need to consult a crochet book to find the stitch.
