Crochet this snuggly Squircles baby blanket from designer Michelle Robinson. Made in 100% wool, this warm and snuggly blanket will be loved by babies and young children for years to come.
Squircles by Poppy and Bliss (Michelle Robinson) is a stunning DK/8ply crocheted blanket made up of 3 sections. The main section consists of various sized squares which are joined together before adding the two side sections of Linen Stitch, then finished beautifully with a contrasting Crab Stitch border.
The ‘Squircles’ are hooked in such a way so that they look like they are floating on top of the square. Gauge is not important for this project but the designer has used slightly larger hooks than usual for DK/8ply yarn so the crocheted fabric is soft and drapey.
The pattern is written in US terms. It has clear written instructions and schematics showing how to join the individual solid squares and ‘squircles’ into your blanket, plus instructions for how to make the various stitches and join your squares.
This sweet blanket pattern is suitable for advanced beginner crocheters and beyond. Experienced crocheters will also enjoy making the blanket.
Techniques used in the pattern include:
- Single, half double, double and treble crochet stitches
- Magic ring
- Crab stitch
- Linen stitch
- Slip stitch join
