Puppy Pawprint Blanket Crochet Pattern (English)

The Puppy Pawprint Blanket is made up of plain solid granny squares and motif squares throughout the body, joined using crochet stitches. The border is made up of 8 rounds using mostly moss stitch with reverse crochet for the edging. I’ve used Stylecraft Special Aran for this blanket, but it’s a great stash busting project.

The 25 page pattern is intermediate skill level and is available in US terminology. It is clear to follow with detailed instructions and lots of pictures to help you make your blanket.
Skill Level: Intermediate - a variety of stitches to make up the blanket and border, as well as colour changes - I've included full chart and written/picture instructions for the squares, as well as pictures for joining and each round of the border. There are stitch descriptions for less common stitches.

The following stitches/techniques are used in this pattern:
