Grandmother's Footsteps Blanket CAL Part Four
By Florence Roberts 6 years ago

The fourth instalment of our latest crochet along 'Grandmother's Footsteps' is here. This traditional granny square blanket is made up of simple granny squares in cream and bright colours. It is suitable for those with a bit more crochet experience. 

This part shows you how to make the corner triangles. These are joined to the corners to complete the blanket's rectangle shape. They are worked in just the aran shade.
