  4. Fasten off and weave in ends.

πŸ” Step-by-Step Blanket Construction

Step 1: Make Multiple Motifs

Create as many motifs as needed based on your desired blanket size:

Blanket TypeSize (approx.)Motifs Needed (4″x4″)
Baby30″ x 40″6 x 8 = 48
Lap/Throw50″ x 60″10 x 12 = 120
Twin66″ x 90″11 x 17 = 187
Queen90″ x 90″17 x 17 = 289

Step 2: Join the Squares

You can choose between two main methods:

➀ Method 1: Sewing (Whip Stitch or Mattress Stitch)

  • Lay motifs out in rows and columns.
  • Use a yarn needle and whip stitch through the back loops.

➀ Method 2: Join-As-You-Go

  • On the final round of the motif, connect it directly to adjacent motifs with slip stitches.
  • Creates a smooth, seamless join.

Step 3: Add a Border

Give your blanket a neat, polished edge.

Simple Border (2–3 Rounds):

  1. Round 1: Single crochet all the way around. Place 3 sc in each corner.
  2. Round 2: Double crochet or shell stitch.
  3. Optional Round 3: Use a darker blue for a finishing touch.

πŸ’‘ You can also add picot or scalloped edging for a lacy effect.
