Partner 6 Granny Square Blanket
Saskia is totally in her element with this free-form crochet project. The blanket she’s making consists of Granny Squares with a round center. She’s found the perfect way to ensure that no two squares are alike while still crocheting quickly. Curious to know how she does it? In the show (and the pattern!), she explains it step by step.
The blanket is crocheted with a soft yarn from Phildar: Partner 6. It’s soft, warm, and colorful all at once!
