What could be more romantic than the French Provincial style? This free 12" afghan square crochet pattern is one of my most textured pieces to date--imagine flowers, vines, trellises, ornate framework on mirrors and table legs--oh my! Incorporating this square into an afghan or home decor project is guaranteed to take to the next level. Knowing how to work post stitches, clusters, shells, and popcorn stitches will make this project go much more smoothly, but the amount of color changes could still slow you down. Allow a bit of extra time to complete this project. You'll feel more relaxed and happy this way, which is the whole point of crochet!

The Touch of Teal Afghan… This is a super easy crochet pattern using only front loop single crochet and back loop double crochet to create the base… The edging is a simple shell pattern. Using a super bulky yarn, this really goes quickly!!! This is a perfect project to make while watching Tv.. Also this makes a perfect gift and will look great in any room of the house!! I used Michael's Loops and Threads Country Loom Yarn in Clear Skies.

This blanket was actually meant to be a baby blanket, but I loved it so much I just made it bigger and kept it for myself. It's a thick and heavy blanket that's so perfect for snuggling into to watch a movie or read a book, which I do a lot of during the Fall/Winter. It's a super easy crochet blanket, but it feels luxurious. It would be an amazing Christmas present if you're looking for something that feels high-end, but it still has a special handmade quality to it. It does use a lot of yarn since there isn't much in each skein, but I think that the wow-factor you get is totally worth it.

Take those small leftover scraps of yarn you've saved from previous crochet projects for this colorful crochet afghan. This Multicolored Scrapghan uses all your discarded yarn scraps and incorporates them into a solid-colored background to make a colorful patchwork afghan. The more scraps you want to work into your afghan, the more skeins of solid yarn you'll need. Make this blanket as long as needed so that you can finally use up all your yarn scraps for something warm and cozy.

This pattern uses simple basic crochet stitches and gives you a lovely repeating subtle texture. This striping pattern is easy to customize with any color you'd like - I went with this fun Neopolitan color scheme this time and love it!
Make up this easy to crochet blanket for your next baby or as a special gift for a friend's little bundle of joy. You really can't go wrong, and it always helps to have extra blankets around.

It's one thing to tell someone special in your life how much they mean to you. But if you crochet, you can make sure that message gets across in a unique way when you create the With Love Crochet Granny Square. With a heart as the focal point of the design, this crochet granny square is a wonderful way to say "I love you." Just keep in mind this crochet pattern is at the intermediate level and is ideal for crocheters looking for a bit of a challenge. Although this project is a perfect crochet Valentine's Day pattern, you don't need to wait for February to make it.

The Something New crochet baby blanket is a timeless pattern that will be perfect for any new addition and look great in any nursery.

It's also great for experienced crocheters who want a timeless pattern that takes them back to basics. Make sure to tag me in your Instagram photos so I can show you some love!

Today's pattern is super quick and easy, and it's perfect for a last-minute baby shower gift. A couple of months ago, my cousin had a baby girl and I wanted to give her something but I didn't have the time I usually take for a baby blanket. I wanted to make something soft and squishy that the baby would snuggle with and something that my cousin could easily wash and take care of. So I decided to go with a C2C Heart Blanket using a super thick yarn and a big hook, and I'm so in love with the results!

You will also need a 5.0mm and a 7.0mm crochet hook.
