Here’s the first square from the Sensational Sampler, a free crochet baby blanket. There are twelve total, but I made 16 in all to make this lovely lapghan. I just made duplicates of a couple of them. Remember to block each square to 8″ after you work them up. I then worked a round of dc in ecru (or any contrasting color) around each one. Further finishing instructions will be given with the last pattern.
