Now there is a story behind this one!
When I was in college, a girl in our dorm taught some of us to make granny squares. I knew none of the names of the stitches or anything. Just how to make granny squares!  Hey!  It's a start.  I decided one day that I was bored making grannies so took that one stitch that was big (found out later it was a double crochet) and make rows of them in many colors to use up my yarn stash!

This blanket is the result.  It is not in terrific shape now, but it is warm and cosy and is on the back of my recliner after 25 years!  Best of all--it is incredibly easy to make in any size you want. Enjoy!

Crochet hook Size H
Yarn-- no idea how much-- lots of scraps. I used black every 4th row too--for contrast.
Chain 255  (makes it about 6' tall)
Row 1: DC in the 3rd chain from hook, and in each ch across, ch 3 then turn.
Row 2: DC in the 3rd dc from hook and in each dc across, ch 3, turn.
