How many chain for a full size crocheted blanket?
I am using an I aluminum Boye crochet hook. How many chain should I make for my foundation row for an approx. full size blanket?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions. 
First of all make a sample chain. Measure how many chains are in an inch. Then measure the
length of a full size blanket in inches and multiply the number of chains times the length of blanket. That should get you the approx. foundation row for you blanket. (Ex: if there are 7 chains in one inch, and you measure the blanket as 72 inches, you multiply it and you’d get 504 chains for the foundation row). I suggest with a lot of chains, you have something to mark the number of chains as you are going along.
Hope this helps. I haven’t made one in a while but this is how I would do it.
