Einleitung
Even the most well-made crochet blanket can start to look a little shabby after years of love and use. It's not uncommon for the yarn loops on a crochet project to unravel over time and a hole starts to form. Unless your blanket is literally hanging on by a thread, don’t throw it away yet! This guide will walk you through how to repair a hole in a crochet blanket so that it looks good as new.
Note: The exact repair method will depend on the construction of the blanket and the stitch pattern used. This guide works best for projects worked in three double-crochet clusters, also known as a granny stitch.

When you reach the last row, take out the stitch markers in the top row of stitches.
