The Gnome Christmas Squares Blanket is a free crochet pattern on my blog!

The Gnome Christmas Squares Blanket is an adorable Christmas themed gnome granny square pattern.  The center of this Christmas blanket starts with four identical all double crochet squares worked in the round. There are several festive and cute Christmas appliqués that are then sewn to the top of the squares.

Essentially a Christmas winter scene featuring man and girl gnomes with a Christmas tree, gingerbread house, candy canes and flying reindeer!

The border is made with a variety of different stitches for interesting texture and festive color!
