Free Textured Ribbon Candy Throw Crochet Pattern

8/21/2025

Last year, I wanted to design something new with the Kenitra stitch but I also wanted something with texture. I played around with the stitch and came up with the Textured Ribbon Candy Stitch that I used in the Textured Ribbon Candy Christmas Tree Skirt pattern. The blanket was designed first but somehow I missed releasing it.
It's a really simple repeat section that can be worked quickly once you understand the stitch placement. It has a wonderful texture and is so comfy to wrap up in!
