BLANKET – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE:
The blanket is made up of granny squares in 17 different color combinations. Work the right number of squares as described above in each color combination = a total of 35 squares. Then work the squares together before working an edge around the whole blanket.
1 GRANNY SQUARE:
Work 4 chain stitches with hook size 4.5 mm = US 7 and the cast-on color of the square – read COLOR COMBINATIONS. Form the chain stitches into a ring with 1 slip stitch in the first chain stitch worked.
Then work A.1 in the round with alternately 1 round from the right side and 1 round from the wrong side as shown in A.1. The first 4 rounds are drawn in A.1, then continue in the same way until you have worked a total of 8 rounds. REMEMBER THE CROCHET GAUGE!
Cut and fasten the strands. The square measures approx. 20 x 20 cm = 8” x 8”.
ASSEMBLY:
Lay the squares out as shown in A.2 or as desired. There should be 5 squares in width and 7 squares in height. Make sure all the squares are right side up. The squares are first worked together in length, then in width.
Work them together with black as follows: Lay 2 squares together, wrong side to wrong side and work through both layers as follows: Work 1 single crochet around the corner, * 4 chain stitches, skip the next 3 double crochets, work 1 single crochet around the next chain stitch*, work from *-* up to and including the next corner (= 8 chain-spaces) and work 3 chain stitches (= transition to the next 2 squares). Repeat on the next 2 squares and then continue until one double-length of squares is completed. Cut and fasten the strand. Then work this double length together with the next length in the same way. When all the lengths have been worked together, work them together in width. Cut and fasten the strands.
EDGE:
Work an edge with black around the whole blanket in the same way as the last round on the squares; i.e. work as follows:
Fasten the strand with 1 slip stitch in the last double crochet before one of the corner-spaces on the blanket and begin the round with 3 chain stitches. Then work 3 double crochets around each chain stitch and 1 chain stitch between each double crochet group.
In the corners work 3 double crochets, 3 chain stitches and 3 double crochets.
In the transition between 2 squares along all sides work 3 double crochets around the corner of the first square, 1 chain stitch and 3 double crochets around the corner of the next square.
When you have worked around the whole blanket finish the round with 1 slip stitch in the 3rd chain stitch from the beginning of the round. Cut and fasten the strand.

Moi. Tulin kysymään liittyen tohon peittoon. Kysymys 1: Voiko noita värejä vaihdella esim. Ottaa 2 kerää niitä värejä mitä tarvitsee vain 1 kerä? Kun katson tota värilistaa niin siinä on sellaisia värejä, joista en pidä. Kysymys 2: Voiko tehdä enemmän ruutuja kuin 35 yhteensä? Meinaan ajattelin virkata niitä ruutuja vähän enemmän, koska siitä tulisi kiva peitto, jota käyttää talvisin + syksyisin. Ett siinä on pari kysymystä, ennenkun alan tekemään ton peiton.
03.09.2023 - 22:59DROPS Design answered:
Hei! Voit tietysti vaihdella värejä keskenään, eli käyttää enemmän/vähemmän jotain tiettyä väriä. Voit tehdä haluamasi määrä ruutuja.
05.09.2023 kl. 13:41Hay algún tutorial de cómo unir los grannys de la manera que pide el proyecto? Gracias la manta es preciosa
14.06.2023 - 23:57Dlaczego na zdjęciu koc wygląda tak jakby kwadraty były łączone ze sobą za pomocą oczek zamykających a inaczej jest to opisane w shemacie? Jak połączyc ze sobą kwadraty żeby koc wyglądał jak ze zdjęcia?
18.05.2023 - 16:59DROPS Design answered:
Witaj Gosiu, na zdjęciu tego dobrze nie widać na czarnym kolorze, ale kwadraty są łączone jak w opisie. Oczywiście możesz je połączyć inaczej np. na szydełku oczkami zamykającymi, ścisłymi, albo zszyć za pomocą igły. Spróbuj z 2 kwadratami i zobacz czy inna opcja nie podoba Ci się bardziej. Pozdrawiamy!
19.05.2023 kl. 08:48Hej Jag skulle gärna virka denna pläd men enfärgad och med garnet drops big merino. Kan jag gå hjälp i att konvertera mönstret och räkna ut hur mycket garn jag behöver att köpa?
27.11.2021 - 12:30DROPS Design answered:
Hej Kristina, DROPS Karisma og DROPS Big Merino tilhører ikke samme garngruppe, så hækler du i Big Merino vil firkanterne blive større og der vil gå mere garn. Vi kender desværre ikke garnforbruget i ensfarvet.
29.11.2021 kl. 14:30Ich habe eine Frage zum Farbwechsel. Der Endfaden der letzten Farbe wird mit eingehäkelt. Und was passiert mit dem Fadenende der neuen Farbe. Danke für Ihre Hilfe
25.04.2021 - 16:21DROPS Design answered:
Liebe Esther, Sie können über dieses Faden auch mal häkeln, oder dann am Ende diese Faden - dieses Video zeigt eine andere Technik, die Sie auch in Runden benutzen können. Viel Spaß beim häkeln!
26.04.2021 kl. 08:01Good day I would like to do this blanket but in a bigger size : roughly cm 130x170. How many more squares should I do and how many more balls of wool should I purchase? Many thanks Lorenza

Bonjour Reine Marie, nous n'avons pas de vidéo pour ce type d'assemblage, après avoir assemblé les 2 premiers carrés (= après la dernière maille serrée autour du dernier coin des 2 carrés), crochetez les 3 ml, puis prenez les 2 carrés suivants, et crochetez 1 ms dans le premier coin de ces 2 carrés, et répétez de *-*. Continuez ainsi et terminez par 1 ms dans le dernier coin des 2 derniers carrés de la bande. Bon crochet!
30.06.2020 kl. 10:52Merci DROPS DESIGN ;mais lorsque l'on termine avec les 3ml apres le coin ,faut-il couper le fil ou continuer sur les deux autres carrés , excuse -moi .merci de votre réponse
29.06.2020 - 14:31DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Reine Marie, les 3 mailles en l'air se font à la transition entre les carrés, après ces 3 ml, crochetez 1 ms autour du coin des 2 carrés suivants et reprenez de *-*. Bon crochet!
29.06.2020 kl. 15:18BONSOIR J AI TERMINE TOUS LES GRANNY MAIS POUR L ASSEMBLAGE JE SUIS PERDUE POUVE VOUS M AIDER MERCI .
26.06.2020 - 22:51DROPS Design answered:
Bonjour Reine Marie, posez 2 carrés envers contre envers et, en piquant dans les 2 épaisseurs, crochetez; 1 ms dans le coin, 4 ml, *1 ms autour de la maille en l'air suivante des 2 carrés* (= 1 ms autour de chaque arceau, chaque ms espacée de 4 ml) - terminez par 3 ml après le coin, prenez les 2 carrés suivants et assemblez-les de la même façon. Quand vous avez ainsi assemblé 7 carrés en longueur, assemblez la bande suivante de la même façon en suivant l'ordre indiqué pour les carrés. Quand toutes les bandes sont assemblés en longueur, procédez de la même façon mais en largeur pour les assembler. Bon crochet!
