What you need to know

Next up in Susie Johns' patchwork blanket is your first crochet square. The granny square is an age-old favourite so we had to include it in our blanket. Although the pattern looks long, you’ll soon get the hang of working into the chain spaces to build the openwork structure. Designer Susie has opted for single colour squares as well as those which change colour on every row. What will you choose? Download this easy pattern today.
