Luminous Square Blanket
This blanket uses solid granny squares which are made using the tapestry crochet technique. The squares join together to make a striking geometric pattern of colourful diamonds.
This pattern uses DK weight yarn. I used bright neon colours which is why I have called the pattern the ‘Luminous Square’, but you could use any colours you like.
Yarn used:
Scheepjes Colour Crafter
2-3 balls in Leerdam 1263 (Yarn A)
1 ball in Eelde 1422 (Yarn B)
1 ball in Mechelen 2013 (Yarn C)
About the yarn: 100% acrylic, 300m per 100g ball
Hook: 3.5mm
Tension: Each 5 round square measures approx. 10cm.
Tension is not critical for this project but it should be tight enough to hide the carried yarn underneath the stitches. You could try using a smaller hook if you find the yarn is showing through too much.
Size: 72 x 72 cm
You can make a larger blanket by increasing the number of squares; you will of course need more yarn than the amounts specified above.
The pattern includes a clear chart and some handy photos which help to demonstrate the more tricky parts of the pattern.
This pattern is written in both UK and US crochet terms, you will receive a PDF for both.
