  4. This is a pretty granny. Thank you for taking the time to share the pattern. I am doing the plain old granny only large squares, 2 rounds of each color for 5 rounds and then will do 2 rounds of gold as a border then join. Made one like that a couple of years ago and a friend wants me to make another for her to buy, so my hexes are on hold again and I'm grannying away!

    1. If you're asking if this square can be continued in pattern to make it larger - no it can't. To make a blanket you would have to crochet at least 16 squares and put them together. :)
