Color mixing elevates this mottled gradient afghan to a whole new level of rainbow-beauty! Restless crocheters will appreciate the variety of stitch patterns and colors used in this large-scale project, as all 4 of the featured Granny Squares in this collection are represented here.

This fun retro blanket begins by crocheting 108 squares, in four different motifs, following the color-order list to ensure even usage of contrasting colors. Once the squares are complete, they are sewn together following the layout diagram and a single crochet border is then added to finish the blanket.

It has been brought to my attention that there is a line missing from the placement chart for the squares. Please note that the 4th row (counting from the top) is missing. In other words, The first 3 rows of the chart are correct, and right after the 3rd row the following sequence of squares should be placed. I will list the numbers of the squares as they would appear in the chart from left-to right.

Row 4: 1, 1, 8, 7, 7, 6, 5, 4, 4

After adding this row of squares, continue with what is now Row #4 in the chart. In other words, the missing row should be inserted between Row 3 and Row 4 in the current (incorrect) chart.

I will update this with a link to errata when it is available on the Crochet.com website.

I apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
