Make a fast Crochet Sweeper Cover
This sweeper cover is so fast to make with Bernat Blanket Yarn. This pattern can be made up easily in under an hour once you get the loop stitch down! You can wash is without worrying about shrinking, and the little loops do a nice job of catching hair and dust bunnies. I have two dogs and two cats, so this is tried and tested.

Supplies:
- Bernat Blanket or Baby Blanket Yarn in any color
- 9.0 mm crochet hook- I used Clover Amour
- Yarn Needle
- Scissors
Abbreviations
- ch: chain
- SC: single crochet
- LS: loop stitch (View a video tutorial by HappyBerry Crochet HERE)
Instructions
Ch 11
Row 1: SC in second ch from the hook and down the rest of the chain (10). Turn
Row 2-6: Ch 1. SC across (10) Turn
Row 7: Ch 1, LS across (10). Turn
Row 8: Ch 1, SC across. Turn
Row 9-26: Repeat row 7 on odd rows and row 8 on even rows
Rows 27-31: Ch 1, SC across. Turn.
At the end of row 31 do not tie off. Fold the piece so that rows 1-6 and 26-31 form the "pockets" to fit over the sweeper. Continue to SC around the entire piece, working through both layers where they overlap to form the pockets. When you get to the folded edges, work SC stitches into the posts of the stitches in Rows 6 and 26 respectively. When you reach your first SC of the edging, attach with a slip stitch and tie off. Weave in ends, and VOILA! You have just made a very fast and very functional sweeper cover!
