bonus: how to wash wool scarfs and blankets2 Steps
We’re crocheting linen stitch squares that have a built-in border, and at the end we’ll join them together seamlessly. The individual squares makes it a portable project that’s a joy to make.
This blanket can be made with 7 different sized yarns and 3 different blanket sizes. Choose your yarn size and blanket size, then discover what crochet hook size you’ll need, how much yarn is needed for each square and how many squares you’ll need.
Be inspired by the images and ideas in the next part.
Feeling overwhelmed? That’s okay. Take a couple of deep breaths and know that whatever your choose will be fabulous because it’s what you love. You can do this! You can ask me your questions too, simply pop over to the “get help” part at the top of this online course.
