Ahoy, fellow crochet adventurers! Are you ready to set sail on a creative journey filled with yarn and imagination? I’m thrilled to introduce you to my latest and greatest crochet pattern: the Swashbuckling Owl Pirate C2C Blanket. This pattern is perfect for all you crafty buccaneers out there looking to add a touch of pirate flair to your crochet collection.

A majestic owl, perched proudly on a pirate ship, sporting a jaunty hat and a daring eye patch. With the Corner-to-Corner (C2C) crochet technique, you’ll bring this delightful scene to life, stitch by stitch. Whether you’re crafting a large throw blanket for cozying up on the couch or a smaller, DK weight yarn version for a baby or toddler, this pattern promises a treasure trove of fun and creativity.

What makes this pattern so special is its swashbuckling style. This isn’t just any blanket—it’s a high-seas adventure! The owl pirate, complete with hat and eye patch, adds a whimsical touch that’s sure to delight kids and adults alike. Plus, the pattern’s versatility allows you to create a large throw for your living room or a smaller, lightweight version perfect for little ones. The DK weight yarn option makes it easy to customize the size to suit your needs. Handmade gifts are the best kind, and this blanket is no exception. It’s a unique and thoughtful present for birthdays, baby showers, or just because.

If you’re new to the C2C (Corner-to-Corner) technique, fear not! This method is a fantastic way to create detailed, pixelated images using simple stitches. I’ll link you to the best and most thorough C2C tutorial I know of; Mikey from the Crochet Crowd (click here for his YouTube tutorial), so you’ll be crafting like a pro in no time. To get started, choose your favorite colors for the owl, pirate hat, ship, and ocean. For the baby and toddler version, DK weight yarn works beautifully. You’ll need a crochet hook suitable for your chosen yarn (H – 5.00mm for medium worsted, F – 3.75mm for DK), as well as scissors and a yarn needle for the finishing touches. Don’t forget to bring a treasure chest of patience and creativity!

Here are a few pirate tips and puns to keep you sailing smoothly. Don’t be a landlubber! Dive right into the pattern, and don’t worry if you make a few mistakes—every great pirate has a few scars. Keep your yarn untangled, or you might end up in Davy Jones’ Locker! And when you finish, weave in those ends like you’re tying off the sails on your ship.

I can’t wait to see your versions of this swashbuckling owl pirate blanket! Share your progress and finished projects with us on social media tagging me @knottedupinstring! It’s always exciting to see how each crafter’s unique touch brings the pattern to life. So, what are you waiting for? Grab your hook and yarn, and let’s set sail on this crochet adventure together. Stay tuned to create a blanket that’s truly the stuff of legends!

Happy crocheting, and may your hooks be swift and your yarn plentiful!

Fair winds and following seas, Hailee Lynn

• The approximate finished size using the recommended medium worsted weight yarn and hook size is 45″x68″ or 114x173cm
• Gauge will vary depending on the brand of yarn used and your personal tension, but a 7×7 square made with the recommended medium worsted weight yarn and hook should be approximately 5”x5” or 13x13cm. Your personal gauge can affect the finished size by several inches/centimeters.
