How about a Christmas Wreath, or a plaque to date your blanket?
This is an unusual Afghan square featuring a circular laddering technique. It may be used without the central overlaid motif, as a place to add the date and initials to your blanket in true sampler style. Working in other colours will give a whole new look, and adding a different central motif of your own will give a less seasonal block. Have fun playing with it.

My sample was Stylecraft Special DK with a 3.5 mm hook, and measures 9”.

This was designed as the December square for 2023 Crochet Block a Month CAL, and tested by Berniece, Jilly, Lynne and Jo. Thank you all.
