Stunningly looking, this pattern also works up incredibly fast. This Block Stitch Square by Ana Benson features little dots of color between rounds of a usual granny square. The pattern is the simplest ever when is coming to turning it into a blanket. All you need to do is to continue the pattern repeats.
Called also mosaic stitch or dot stitch, this very simple pattern has lots of possibilities.
=========================================
The finished square measures 6 inches x 6 inches, however, this project can be made larger or turned into a full-sized afghan by continuing the pattern repeats.
Skill Level: Easy
Supplies:
- Worsted weight yarn in two or more colors; I have used Knit Picks Shine Worsted in Hydrangea, Pistachio and Reef
- 5.0 mm (H-8) crochet hook or size needed to obtain the gauge
- yarn needle for weaving in ends

“It’s so simple ” they said. It’ll be fun they said…..
I made an afghan with this pattern with scrap yarn. (I did buy yarn for the joining and border). This is on a California King size bed; 99 blocks. Worked up quick, and much prettier than basic granny squares!
Beautiful!
Love it!
Thank you
I’ve made baby blankets w/this pattern, BUT your afghan of many colors & squares is just beautiful !!

Yes it is
This is one of my favorite patterns for making preemie blankets.
I have been doing giant granny square afghans for a while. I like this style so now I will try one in this style to see how it goes.
Mainly do giant continuous ones as I have not mastered the technique to join single squares together. Always turns out ugly. LOL

New trying to learn to read patterns would this be good for me
Nice s$#%&!@*ch!

I can not read pattern sure wish I could do this one I do granny squares….
You do not have to do individual sqares, you can just keep going around, remembering to do the 3 double crochet 1 single and another 3 double in each corner. it can be as big as you want, and no sewing sqauares together, it can be as big as you want. Using left over yarns make a lovely granny fghan.

I’ve made alot of granny square afghans because it’s such a good use of left over yarn but now made them into one big granny square! I just keep going and changing colors until it’s the size I want

Just finished a blanket with this stitch worked in rows and wanted to try it in rounds. Now I don’t have to figure it out myself! Thanks
Can’t see how the stitches were done, keeps shutting down on me.
