Important notes on yardage!
Option 1 is the preferred method of joining which will leave you enough yarn for a border next week. However, if you would like a more decorative join, I have put in an alternative option 2. Option 2 will use all your base colour yarns and will not include a border. The choice is yours!

Tips
  • Read through the pattern at least once before you start.
  • The aim of this CAL is to let out your creative side, so choose any colours you like! You can even combine multiple colours.
  • Use the invisible join method to finish, as described in the Tips & Tricks PDF.
  • Sew in the ends right after you finish.
  • If you want to print the pattern, please only print page 7. This is a special page, designed to use the least amount of ink and of course paper.
  • Have fun! :)

Pattern
Option 1
We are working the horizontal rows first. Start with a slip knot on your hook/a standing stitch. You can find a short tutorial on how to do this in the Tips & Tricks PDF.
1. Grab 2 squares and put them wrong side together. Insert your hook from front to back through the ch2 space in the right hand corder of both squares. Work 1sc.
2. Insert your hook through the back loops of both squares; work 1sc.
3. *1sc* across through the back loops of both squares, until you reach the corner. Insert your hook from front to back through the ch2 space in the left hand corder of both squares, and work 1sc.
4. Grab 2 more squares and put them wrong side together. Insert your hook from front to back through the ch2 space in the right hand corder of both squares. Work 1sc. Continue from row 2.

Repeat rows 1 - 4 until all the squares are joined horizontally.
Turn your blanket and work the vertical rows in the same way. When you get to an ‘intersection’, work 1sc in the ch2 spaces of both squares, ch1, and work 1sc in the ch2 spaces of the next 2 squares.

Option 2
We are working the horizontal rows first. Start with a slip knot on your hook/a standing stitch. You can find a short tutorial on how to do this in the Tips & Tricks PDF.
1. Grab 2 squares with right sides facing. Insert your hook through the first ch2 corner space of the bottom square, and work 1sc. Work another sc in the first dc. Ch2; work a sc in the first ch2 corner space of the top square, and another sc in the first dc of that same square.
2. Ch2. Skip one stitch on the bottom square and work 1sc. Ch2; skip one stitch on the top square and work 1sc. Keep zig-zagging along the sides of both squares until you reach the corner ch2 space of the bottom square. Work 1sc in the last dc, and another sc in the ch2 sp. Ch2; then work 1sc in the last dc of the top square, and another sc in the ch2 sp of the top square.
3. Grab 2 more squares with right sides facing. Ch2; Insert your hook through the first ch2 corner space of the bottom square, and work 1sc. Work another sc in the first dc. Ch2; work a sc in the first ch2 corner space of the top square, and another sc in the first dc of that same square. Continue from row 2.
Repeat rows 1 - 3 until all the square are joined horizontally.
Turn your blanket and work the vertical rows in the same way.

Options for joining
You can use one of my joining suggestions for your squares, but please feel free to join your squares the way you like it! This will become your blanket and this is a great opportunity for you to let your creativity run wild :)

Caring for your blanket
You can safely wash your blanket at 40°C. The Scheepjes Cotton 8 yarn is colour fast, but if you’re concerned about any colours running you could use a colour catcher with the first wash. You don’t need to block your blanket again after you’ve washed it; you can just lay it flat and gently smooth it into shape when it is still wet. Don’t put your blanket through the dryer; let it dry flat and naturally.

Pattern
  1. Start with a slip knot on your hook/a standing stitch. You can find a short tutorial on how to do this in the Tips & Tricks PDF.
  2. Start in one of the corners, in the first stitch next to the ch2 sp. Work 1sc in each of the stitches along the side, through the back loops only. When you get to a ch2 sp, work 3sc. Keep going like this until you did all the sides. Join with a sl st to the first sc you made.
  3. Ch1, sc in the same stitch. *Ch3, sk2, sc*. Repeat ** around. Ch3, sk2, join with a sl st to the first sc of this rnd.
  4. Sl st to the next ch3 sp. Ch1, sc in ch3 sp. *Ch3, sc in next ch3 sp* around. Ch3, join with a sl st to the first sc of this rnd.
  5. Sl st to the next ch3 sp. Ch1, sc in ch3 sp. *Ch3, sc in next ch3 sp* around. Ch3, join with a sl st to the first sc of this rnd.
  6. Sl st to the next ch3 sp. Ch1, 4sc in ch3 sp. *4sc in ch3 sp* around. Join with sl st to the first sc of this rnd.
  7. Ch1, *2sl st, ch3, sl st in same stitch, 8sl st, ch5, sl st in same stitch, 6sl st* around. Join with sl st to first sl st.
Fasten off. Sew in the ends using your darning needle.

Blocking
Blocking the border for blankets made with joining option 1
If you have made your blanket using option 1 for the join and added the border, it is important to block the border. It will really make a difference, since it will open up the border, giving your blanket a nice lacy border and a perfect finished look! You don’t need to block the join if you have used option 1. To block the border, don’t block/stretch your entire blanket. Instead, block the border separately by pinning along the sides of the squares and in the little picots of the border. Blocking may seem like it’s very time consuming and unnecessary, but it is absolutely worth it in the end!

Blocking the join for blankets made with joining option 2
If you have made your blanket using option 2 for the join, it is important to block your blanket one more time. It will really make a difference, since it will open up the join, giving your blanket a nice lacy join and a perfect finished look! Blankets joined with option 2 don’t have a border. If you choose to make your own border, please block the join first, as it will stretch your blanket significantly. To block the join, don’t block/stretch your entire blanket. Instead, block the separate joins from top to bottom and from left to right. Pin alongside the joins to open them up, or use blocking wires to make it easier. Blocking may seem like it’s very time consuming and unnecessary, but it is absolutely worth it in the end!
