🌹 3D Granny Rose Cushion | Now as a Blanket Too!✨

🌹✨ 3D Granny Rose Cushion – Now as a Blanket Too!✨🌹

Did you know the 3D Granny Rose Cushion pattern can be easily adapted into a square lap blanket or even a toddler blanket? 💕🧸

That’s right! This versatile pattern isn’t just for cushions! With a few simple tweaks, you can transform your beautiful 3D roses into something snuggly, soft, and perfect for gifting (or keeping for yourself… we won’t tell 😉).

🎨 Colour Play & Layout

In this version, two of the granny squares were made exactly as written in the original cushion pattern, using the same colours and order for that gorgeous floral pop 🌹. These two squares were placed on opposite corners of the blanket for a lovely sense of balance.

The other two squares? Pure creative fun! They were made using leftover yarns from the original cushion, plus a few similarly coloured extras thrown in for good measure. Gotta love a good stash-busting moment! 😄🧶

🌿 Joining & Border Details

The squares were joined together in green using the JAYGO (Join As You Go) method 🌿One of my favourites for seamless joins and neat results. After joining, a row of granny stitches in the same green 💚 was worked all the way around to frame the piece beautifully.

Then came the border, simple but oh-so-effective:

🔹 Row 1 (Light Blue): Single crochet (sc) in each stitch, with [sc, ch2, sc] in each corner.

🔹 Row 2 (Medium Pink): Linen/Moss stitch pattern (ch1, skip one stitch, sc), with [sc, ch2, sc] in each corner.

🔹 Row 3 (White or Cream): Continue the linen/moss stitch (ch1, skip a stitch, sc). Please note - your single crochets go into the ch-1 spaces from the previous row, with 3sc worked in each corner.

The finished look is soft, textured, and perfectly balanced, ideal for any room that needs a touch of crochet charm 🌼

🧶 Materials & Yarn Notes

This blanket was made mostly using Yarnsmiths Cotton DK 🌸 (such a lovely smooth yarn with beautiful stitch definition!) with a few sneaky 100% cotton stash yarns mixed in for fun.

Of course, you can use any yarn you like! That’s the joy of crochet! Total creative freedom. 💕 #NoYarnLeftBehind 😂
