This sweet blanket is a great project for newer crocheters who have mastered the humble Granny Square, and are after something new!

The pattern includes both written and charted instructions, as well as some tips for sewing your hexi’s together. It also comes in 3 suggested sizes, from a Baby Blanket all the way to a large Throw for your sofa, but it is easy to make it as big or small as you like.

Choose rainbow colours, soft pastels, or use up all of those 8ply leftovers - I encourage you to let your creativity fly with colours!
