What Materials Do I Need?
This pattern offers a fantastic way to use up Scheepjes River/Stone Pack. It’s a ready-made set of 58 unique yarn colors packaged in 10g balls that you can use to create a colorful blanket like the one seen in the photo above.
These squares are also great for incorporating leftover yarn from your stash. Just be sure to use yarn of the same weight for best results.
Techniques at the Heart of the Pattern
Though it may look impressive, this crochet square pattern is very simple to make. It mostly features basic crochet stitches like single crochets and double crochets that will suit every beginner. Each square is done after completing just five rounds.
Once you’ve got the hang of the pattern, your squares will fly off your hook in a flash!
What Size Does the Finished Square Measure?
The original square designed by Becca Bomgardner is about 3.5” diagonally. When using a 4 mm crochet hook and Scheepjes River/Stone Pack, you should be able to create two squares from one 10g ball.
To increase or decrease the size of blocks, you can either switch to a different hook or use a different weight of yarn.
