If you’ve never tried working a mitered square pattern, the Homespun Happy Baby Blanket -- available in both knit and crochet versions -- is a terrific introduction. If you already know how much fun these are, you’ll still want to try this easy pattern. Squares can be joined as you go or worked separately and sewn together for a more portable project.
