Easy Level
Stepping into a time machine and heading back to the days when Grandma always made a colourful rug of squares for your bed. This is my own version of the old knitted granny blanket. This is made in one piece with no joining.
An understanding of colour change technique and linked stitches is required.
Crochet terminology: Both US and UK.
This is a written pattern with photos and a graph for the edging.
