This pattern is for a continuous granny square blanket using the 6DKB Stitches. Start in the center and keep going until it’s as big as you like!

I’ve created a delicate, beautiful shell stitch border for this blanket as well, which gives the finished blanket a really polished, pretty look. Enjoy.
