Provided is a method for producing an alkyl cellulose having a high viscosity and not having an excessively high gel strength. More specifically, there is provided a method for producing an alkyl cellulose comprising the steps of: mixing a cellulose pulp with a first alkali metal hydroxide solution with stirring to obtain alkali cellulose; reacting the alkali cellulose with an alkylating agent to obtain a first reaction mixture; blending a second alkali metal hydroxide solution with the first reaction mixture with stirring, without further blending of the alkylating agent, to obtain a second reaction mixture; and purifying the second reaction mixture to obtain an alkyl cellulose.
