Crochet Pattern Square Blanket

There’s something truly timeless about a crochet square blanket. Whether you love floral motifs, bold stripes, or colorful geometric combinations, working with individual squares allows you to explore texture and color in a creative and manageable way. This beautiful blanket design combines four different square styles, creating a vibrant yet harmonious piece that looks stunning in any home.

What I especially love about square blankets is how versatile they are. You can crochet each square separately (perfect for on-the-go projects!) and assemble them later. It’s also a wonderful stash-busting project, giving you the freedom to play with color combinations while still following a structured layout.

Today’s pattern features a mix of large floral squares, small flower combinations, and striped textured squares all finished with a clean border that ties everything together. And at the end of this article, you’ll find the complete PDF pattern ready for download.
