If you’re looking for something quick and easy, then this super bulky yarn throw pattern is for you. It’s mindless and can be worked up in a day or so, depending on how much time you have to crochet.
The beginning and end of the rows are worked a bit different because I wanted the edges to be straight, but I didn’t want to add an edging. I’ve included a video tutorial at the end of the written pattern in case you need it.
I chose a solid color to match my couches, but this pattern would be easy to work up cheerful or neutral stripes.

Notes:
The chains made at the beginning of each row count as your first stitch made. Another stitch is worked into the first stitch for a total of 2 stitches made in the first stitch.
Then at the end of the row, a decrease is made over the last 2 stitches to maintain the stitch count. This helps to keep the edges straighter.
