Here is  square #6 from the Sensational Sampler, a free crochet baby blanket. Use an H hook and block to 8″. I added a dc border around it with contrasting color of ecru. You can use any contrasting color you choose. It then works up to be 9″. I hope you enjoy these blocks – they are very easy to work up, and very pretty to boot!
