Lois Square

"Welcome to Week 39 of the Textures and Tassels Blanket mystery crochet along! This week, I’m sharing an 12″ solid granny square, the Lois Square. This simple pattern is textured with stitches in the back loops and third loops. The Textures and Tassels Blanket is a mystery crochet along for a throw-sized blanket worked in a combination of motifs and rows. Borders are crocheted in the round and the blanket is finished off with tassels. Finished Size Throw Blanket.
