Winter is crochet season

Here’s a granny square pattern that can be expanded as much as you like—you can turn it into a beautiful pillow, a blanket, a tablecloth, or even a simple bag.

The pattern is detailed, and the design is simple enough that beginners shouldn’t have any trouble.

This granny square creates a great visual effect—it looks as if you’ve layered several blankets on top of each other, but that’s not actually the case.

Grab your crochet hook and get crocheting!

There are already plenty of rectangular and square blankets—how about a round one for a change?

My kids much prefer the round one to the rectangular and square ones I’ve made so far. Why?
I have no idea. But there must be a reason.

The pattern is beginner-friendly, and you can really crochet it in any size.
Plus, it’s a pattern that’s very quick to crochet—you’ll have a big, cozy blanket in just a few days.

What makes winter cozy? That’s right… everything that’s nice and warm and keeps you warm. Not just us, but our pets too. Who wouldn’t love to be the resident of this cat basket, purring with contentment? The felt basket is a wonderful home for your cat. It’s a great way to get through the winter.

What makes a child’s room cozy in winter? Exactly ... a soft, colorful rug. When little bare feet climb out of bed, they want to stand on this thick rug. It is made from lots of colorful French knitting cords that were woven through a crocheted grid. And the bright colors instantly put you in a good mood. That makes it fun to play in your room even in winter. And absolutely no one is guaranteed to have such a beautiful rug!

I love this pattern—these voluminous cables give this pillow a great look. Plus, this pattern is very versatile—it’s not just for pillows, but also for blankets, hats, pot holders, and, of course, as a granny square. This crochet pattern includes a crochet chart. The two types of stitches used are described in detail in the pattern. There’s also a description for the tassels.

 

Hello,

Everyone has old jeans lying around at home, whether they’re damaged or you’ve outgrown them.

Here’s my sewing pattern for what you can make from old jeans. You don’t need any advanced sewing skills either.

I could also easily imagine this as a large "dog pillow"....
