Make the gorgeous version of the Nuts About Squares blanket that Deb made for her little boy. Order a kit in her colours and get started!
The Nuts about Squares blanket is a collection of beautiful crocheted squares compiled by Esther from It's All in a Nutshell and worked into a blanket which is crafted from 35 amazing individual squares designed by 11 talented crochet designers.
Each square has been carefully selected to ensure that all of the squares work together well in their look and feel. After completing the squares and joining the whole blanket together, a beautifully textured border is added to finish it off.
This blanket is wonderful for crocheters who are looking for a fabulously fun project that will keep them interested in each square, and who will end up with a beautiful blanket at the completion of their project.
You can find all the instructions for the blanket here, including step-by-step videos for each square compiled by Esther, the technique to use for joining the squares, and finally, crocheting the border.
Our own kits
To celebrate this wonderful project, we have put together kits in beautiful 10ply / worsted weight Bellissimo Linden wool/cotton blend yarn. Deb recently made this blanket for her little boy Rupert so this kit uses all her colours - you may have seen her chatting about the blanket on our Instagram or Facebook pages.
You can also see each square and the colours that Deb used on our blog:
