Intermediate crochet blanket pattern written in English for a beautiful granny square crochet blanket. Twelve large granny squares make this colourful and unusual crochet throw, made from ten exotic colours inspired by the vibrant silks of the far East. Each round of the granny square blanket motif is surprisingly easy to achieve using only classic crochet stitches and simple instructions.
With a striking Indian Lotus Flower as its central design, this bright and beautiful crochet blanket is guaranteed to be the focal point of any room.
The finishing bobbles at both ends makes it suitable as a wall hanging too.
