This is such a cute baby blanket pattern! I love how simple it looks to make the squares. If you are feeling especially creative, you could use a variety of yarn colors instead of just one. I think that would be really neat! There are nearly endless possibilities of how to make this beautiful blanket!

This Posey in the Square baby blanket is so cute. I probably is for a intermediate crochet person. The squares work up quite fast. The most time is sewing them all together. I usually crochet squares together and this seems to make a cleaner seam. You can do this blanket in all one color too that can be used by anybody. Fun project..
