TASTER: Granny Rectangular Blanket with Jane Czaja
FREE Tasters (Crochet) • Educational, G, 24-Mar-2023
This pattern is a rectangle based on Granny Square pattern. Easy BUT take care with first 3 rounds as that is where the magic happens.
Jane loves colour but doesn't like to sew in ends so suggests using a variegated yarn. Choosing 450g of any variegated chunky wool plus a plain colour for the edging. The resulting blanket has a striking centre piece with a cosy look and feel.
Fun to make for all crochet levels as it uses chains and trebles.
